Powell Valve Closure Systems - Do They Work?
Occasionally we are asked by potential customers if we can document actual instances
when Powell Emergency Valve Closure Systems have prevented a release of hazardous
chemicals.
"No News is Good News".
While we do hear now and then about an accidental spill that has been prevented
or minimized by one of our emergency shutdown systems, the majority of the feedback
we get deals more with their high level of satisfaction with our systems rather
than with actual types or amounts of chemicals that were prevented from being released
to the environment.
One really has to consider this question from the opposite direction:
Have our customers reported incidences where they didn't work in an emergency? The
answer to that question is much more direct -NO!
Powell Systems Are the Most Durable, Reliable Emergency Shutdown Systems Available
Before any Powell system went to market, it was first subjected to extensive and
exhaustive durability testing and field testing. Great care has been taken to design
electric and pneumatic shutoff systems that are convenient to use, dependable, powerful,
versatile, and most importantly, reliable.
