Shand & Jurs announce 96330 internal safety shutoff & operating valve Feb 18, 2010 Shand & Jurs announce 96330 internal safety shutoff & operating valve Shand & Jurs today announced the launch of the new 96330 Internal Safety Shutoff & Operating Valve.

The Valve provides automatic, foolproof, quick-acting shutoff of product flow in tanks and manifold lines.

“The 96330 is extremely versatile,” Product Manager Michael Landato said. “It can be mounted in the tank or in line.”

The 96330 is used most effectively for safety shutoff or operating valves in manifold lines. Its action is bi-directional with respect to flow and pressure and its balanced piston design resists opening due to tank or line pressure.

The 96330 is designed to be held in a normally closed or open position by a spring loaded balanced type piston. The valve checks closed in either direction when operating pressure is removed.

L&J Technologies companies include L&J Engineering, Shand & Jurs (S&J), GPE, Omnitrol, and Delavan. L&J is a global manufacturer of tank level gauging and tank fitting equipment, control systems technology and related products.




Intermodal transportation: The next wave?Holidays are almost over, for those lucky enough to go on vacation. I spent my time away from the sea, and well above sea level. Just for reassurance. As you might know, the majority of Dutch grounds are below sea level (about 65%), and we keep dry feet by pumping water. Without that, we would build our sandcastle around "Amersfoort at the Sea" (a city some 80km inland). However, spending time in the Alps, some 800m above sea level, my rectangular box driven mind did not come to a complete standstill, wondering about hinterland transportation.
