NEW CNC machine installed improves machine times by 300%
A new Citizen Miyano CNC machine with twin spindles and twin turrets has now been installed and already proving its worth as a £250k investment by making parts in 1/3rd of the times previously made on the machine it replaced. As our business levels continue to grow and the demand to maintain short lead times increases, the CNC machine from Citizen was viewed as a key piece of equipment required to support the strategic needs of the company.
Pressure Tech completes supply of 108 Hydraulic Regulators with 100% OTIF delivery
Pressure Tech recently completed the supply of 108 x LF690 hydraulic regulators to our Authorised Reseller, Hydraserv, in Norway. The project was for a key system builder supplying several HPUs for a project in Brazil. All 108 regulators were delivered in time and in full to meet with the customers needs.
TIS Order Sees SS-690 Reworked For Remote Subsea Operation
Pressure Tech were asked to provide a design solution to enable the remote set point control of one of our subsea regulators during its service under water. A regulator’s set point is configured during its build at our unit in Glossop, UK. The regulator is then supplied as ‘set and lock’ - any changes after this point must be physically conducted, either prior to system installation or during maintenance intervals. Our solution? A closed loop actuator enabling the customer to control set pressure point constantly via an electronic signal during regulator operation. The actuator is fully sealed, IP69K rated and has a sea water depth rating of up to 3000m.

White Paper: The H2 'Chicken and the Egg' For some time now, the hydrogen economy has faced a classic conundrum often referred to as the age-old question of the chicken and the egg: which comes first, is it the infrastructure or is it the demand?
It has been difficult to justify the investment needed to deliver hydrogen production and refuelling stations when the demand that will create a return on investment doesn’t really exist at the scale required. On the flip-side, end users are reluctant to purchase hydrogen vehicles when there isn’t the network needed to efficiently support them.
Our hydrogen expert, Jordon Cullen, has put together his thoughts on the subject in our newly released white paper, ‘Delivering the Hydrogen Economy with Safe and Reliable Hydrogen Refuelling’.

New Article Pressure Tech's Lemar Wright is on a mission to help explain and demistify our understanding of pressure regulators.
Here's the first part of our brand new, short, informative video mini-series with Lemar talking us through common terms and functions of a pressure regulator.
In part one watch Lemar demonstrate and discuss:
• The main components of a regulator.
• Loading element.
• Variations of loading and advantages, including dome or air actuated.
• Compressing the spring to increase force.
• The sensing element: Typically, either a diaphragm or a piston
• The control element: A combination of a main valve and a seat.

Typically incorporating Inconel® X750 diaphragm sensed elements for strength and flexibility, this range includes options from gas cylinder regulators to ATEX certified (94/9/EC) heated regulators.
Typically with ceramic seating, these include our hydraulic range with precision machined and fully supported sensor elements to cover pressure ranges up to 1,034 bar (15,000 psi). Port sizes from 1/8" to 3/8".
Medium-flow primarily for gas service with diaphragm-sensed elements to control up to 10 bar (145 psi), and piston-sensed elements covering up to 414 bar (6,000 psi). Ports 1/2" to 1".
High-flow featuring diaphragm and piston-sensed with port sizes from 1/2" to 3" using threaded or flanged connections. Pressure control available up to 210 bar (3,045 psi).
A back pressure regulator accurately controls the inlet pressures to any process. Our range covers port sizes from 1/8" to 2" and control pressures from 0.1 bar (2 psi) to 690 bar (10,000 psi) on gas or liquid applications.
Our hydraulic regulators feature precision machined sensing elements for control to 1,380bar (20,000psi) and self venting is available with captured vent ports. Port sizes from 1/4" to 3/4". Ratio- or dome-loaded.
From drones to buses, and forklifts to refuelling solutions our products include, among others, an EC79 approved pressure regulator and a TPED approved self-closing gas cylinder valve.
Our brass regulators are cleaned and degreased within the guidelines of ASTM G93 for equipment used in oxygen-enriched enviroments, and intended for use on critical life support or hyperbaric diving applications.
Designed to operate at depths of up to 3,000m, our regulators can either use external seawater pressure as a reference pressure, or, they can be sealed to operate at topside ambient pressure conditions.
The AVC690 (normally closed) and AVO690 (normally open) are compact actuated valves suitable for gas and liquid applications, and designed to have a very high cycle life.
If you need to discuss an application or project, request a price or if you have any other query, we are available to speak from Monday to Friday from 08:30 to 17:00 (UK time).
