lmnc safety valve manufacturer

Of all the challenges you face keeping your customers’ plants operating at full capacity, safety and relief valves shouldn’t be one of them. NASVI’s job is to give you the confidence that your valve supply chain is rock solid regardless the pressure it’s under.

With more than 1,050 employees and 130,000 safety valves produced per year, LESER is the largest manufacturer of safety valves in Europe and one of the leading companies in its industry worldwide.

LESER offers spring loaded and pilot operated safety valves for all industrial applications according to the Pressure Equipment Directive and ASME XIII. Major companies in the chemical, oil and gas, petrochemical, energy, technical gases, LNG/LPG, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, shipbuilding and heating and air conditioning industries use LESER safety valves.

LESER safety valves are developed for the international market in Hamburg and manufactured in the modern plant in Hohenwestedt/Germany. In addition, LESER produces safety valves to the same standards in India and China for the local markets. Nine subsidiaries and offices in Europe, America, the Middle East and Asia as well as authorized contacts in over 80 countries guarantee competent customer advice and fast, reliable deliveries.

because in this design they are running below recommended operating temperatures and voltages which means they are going to last longer, even though valves are incredibly robust when it comes to longevity compared to capacitors for instance. This means there is as much chance of the valve dieing as other components, so swapping it out doesn’t seem to justify a socket.

it simplifies the build process, because there are no sockets the valve wont stick out as much meaning it can go on the same pcb as potentiometers etc. This means less circuit boards and less faff

over time especially in a touring synth valve sockets on the front of modules get looser and looser. This causes a bit of a temperamental module where valves sometimes wriggle themselves to a loose connection.

also another thing I thought worth mentioning is handling valves with your fingers. In the application of the safety valve it doesnt really matter, even in most household applications of valves it doesn’t really matter handling these with your hands. purely because they aren’t on all the time and most importantly they don’t get hot enough. handling with your fingers is more an issue in valves in places like radio studios and power stations of old where operating temperatures were a lot closer to the crunch point in glass and over such a long amount of time that yes oils and such could pose a corroding issue.

In the safety valve because the 12ax7 is a pretty darn robust valve and the fact that the safety valve operates below recommended temperature of the 12ax7 its fine its the same as holding a glass with mulled wine in it
