Flotech service technicians removing an ancient 20 inch Knife Gate Valve off of a black liquor tank at a Georgia paper mill during a planned outage.

Curtiss-Wright’s Industrial division has announced that its Farris Engineering business unit has received ASME Code Section VIII certification for the 3800L Series pilot-operated pressure relief valves with modulating pilot controls (PCM) for use in air, gas and vapor service. Previously, the 3800L was only certified for liquid service.

Recently Flotech was contacted by the Bacardi Bottling Corporation to inspect, remove, test, and repair 26 large environmental tank valves at their 96-acre Jacksonville, Florida facility.
