Interceptor - Model VE -Explosion Isolation Pinch Valve
The Interceptor®-VE® is a NFPA 69 compliant isolation pinch valve. The Interceptor®-VE® valve is normally open. Upon receiving a signal from either a pressure responder or an optical sensor the Interceptor®-VE® controller is designed to immediately signal the Interceptor®-VE® valve. The Interceptor®-VE® valve will close in milliseconds to prevent the passage of hot particles, glowing embers, flame, or pressure from continuing to flow through the pipe. The medium of actuation is plant compressed air stored in a tank on the valve to ensure the fastest response possible under any plant conditions.
The jaw-dropping evolution of CV Technology’s Interceptor®-VE® is stunning. While CV Technology’s Interceptor®-VE®, an NFPA 69 compliant isolation pinch valve, has flawlessly secured vessels for the past 17 years, responding with milliseconds to triggers from explosion vents, the latest update features a faster response time, increased integration with intelligent systems, closer placement to the vessel to improve ease in installation, and a remarkable reduction in cost.
The evolved Interceptor®-VE® responds to explosion vents, optical detectors, and pressure detectors at a 20% faster speed. Fully integrated, the Interceptor®-VE® communicates with the Lumex® Optical Detector, the Detex® Pressure Detector, and the Conex® Controller. This synchronicity to the Conex® Controller offers engineers and plant operators immediate insights into conditions and data signals, a clear technological advantage. In addition to upgrades in speed and adaptability, the evolved VE is also easier to install, allowing closer proximity to the vessel. With a 20% faster response time, integration capabilities, integrated system design, and easer installation, engineers will find this advanced Interceptor®-VE® a more intelligent and economical choice.
