Schroeder Valves is among the suppliers for the world’s biggest gas-fired combined cycle power plant complex currently being built in Egypt. The first of a total of 36 Schroeder High Pressure (SHP) valves have already been delivered. The automatic recirculation valve is suited for the high and maximum pressure range as well as for situations involving highly fluctuating pump loads and long periods of operation under extreme partial load conditions – exactly the features needed for the protection of the pumps in the Egyptian complex.
The SHP valve is an automatic recirculation valve which was developed to protect pumps and equipment from damage that can occur due to the flow rate falling below the permissible minimum. It is suited primarily to customers in the field of power plant and plant construction and the offshore industry. The SHP builds on existing Schroeder Valves technology. The company already has decades of operational experience with almost all of the effective principles and assemblies used and the SHP can be considered ‘proven equipment’. The individual system components have simply been modified and innovatively combined to enhance the dependable and low-wear area of application of the existing technology to meet the increased requirements. Thus, the new SHP series automatic recirculation valve enables and promotes the energy-efficient operation of modern power plant facilities.
