Nickel Plating and ATEX Marking on PROGRESSIVE DIVIDERS SMX/SMO

New Dual Line System

 
 
Dropsa is pleased to inform customers that from this year, Dropsa has completed the transition to nickel Plating on all SMX and SMO Progressive diver valve products.
This represents a commitment to continuous product and quality improvement and has been introduced across the product range without any variation to prices.
The Nickel plating adopted by Dropsa is up to 70 times more resistant to corrosion in the field than the previous Zinc Plating.


The new element marking obtained by a new laser system introduced at our facility in 2008, now includes:

- The Part Number
- The Work Order (batch) Number
- The SMX or SMO identification symbol
- Metering quantity in cm3 and cu.inch
- The "CE" Mark

Additionally, our divider elements and bases have now been all certified for use in ATEX (hazardous area) as standard. The elements therefore have the ATEX "Ex II2GD" category mark.
