Spence Announces the New Intimidator Pneumatic Control Valve

Spence Engineering Company, Inc., Walden, New York introduces the new Intimidator Pneumatic Control Valve. The Intimidator provides precise control through a newly designed 36 and 60 square inch actuator/yoke assembly. These new actuators are epoxy coated with all stainless steel hardware and internals for better corrosion resistance and longer life and incorporate the NEMUR standard for mounting accessories to the yoke. The Intimidator also features our newly designed spring-loaded packing assembly that reduces maintenance costs while also reducing fugitive emissions.

The Intimidator is available in sizes 1/2" to 4" in Cast Iron and 1/2" to 2" in Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel and Bronze. The valve features exceptionally high flow coefficients allowing for the selection of smaller valves and saving our customers money. The Intimidator is available with numerous inlet size/port size configurations that allow you to chose the right valve for the application. Spence Engineering Company, Inc. is an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer of pressure and temperature control valves, steam traps, pneumatic control valves and safety and relief valves.
