Project background
STOCKMEIER France handles a wide range of chemical products, serving various industrial customers. Operating under Seveso high classification, safety and reliability are essential in every aspect of their operations. The company has consistently turned to GF Piping Systems for dependable equipment and advanced Process Automation solutions to meet these rigorous safety standards. In a recent project, STOCKMEIER France sought to further improve the accuracy and reliability of its valve systems and flow measurement, particularly in harsh chemical environments.
Selected technical solution
To meet STOCKMEIER France’s needs, GF Piping Systems supplied the Ball Valve 546 Pro Big-Dimensions and the 2581 FlowtraMag Meter. The Ball Valve 546 Pro, available in sizes DN65 to DN100, offers corrosion resistance, a lockable lever for safety, and an optional LED position sensor. The Pneumatic Actuator PPA, made of polypropylene fiberglass, also offers durability in aggressive chemical environments. STOCKMEIER France chose the DN80 valve for its superior material and design, offering betterwear resistance during maintenance. The FlowtraMag Meter, made of PVC, simplifies installation with a union assembly and provides precise flow measurement with minimal pressure loss.
Achieved improvement
GF Piping Systems’ ongoing collaboration with STOCKMEIER France has led to substantial improvements in equipment performance and operational safety. The implementation of the 546 Pro in big dimensions and the FlowtraMag Meter has allowed STOCKMEIER France to enhance the reliability of its chemical distribution systems while maintaining high safety standards. By partnering with GF, STOCKMEIER France has reinforced its ability to maintain reliable chemical distribution processes in line with stringent safety regulations. As Hugo Le Marre, New Works Coordinator at STOCKMEIER France, notes: “We have high safety requirements, and to meet them, we need reliable products that enable us to secure our facilities. That’s why working with GF gives us the assurance of a partnership and quality equipment.”
