IQ Instruments has announced that it has been appointed as distributor of the fluid controls systems division of Rotex for southern Africa. This covers the entire range of solenoid, air operated and angle seat valves. Rotex is an ISO9000:2008 certified company with manufacturing facilities at three locations in India and is one of the few companies to make valves certified for use in the nuclear power industry. With its in house design facility, Rotex is able to offer customised valves as well as the standard range of products.
