Clarke Valve’s shutter valve approved for sale to oil and gas customers in EU
Following millions of hours of service in the field, the valve has secured a CE Marking, after successfully completion of certification guidelines outlined in PED Module H 2014/68/EU, according to the company.
Notified Body TÜV SÜD Industrie Service carried out the certification and on-site audit of Clarke Valve’s systems for engineering, supply chain and quality assurance. Shutter valves manufactured by the company will be marked with the EU-approved designation CE 0036.
“We are proud to announce this latest third-party validation of the reliable, low-torque Shutter Valve,” said Kyle Daniels, president and CEO of Clarke Valve. “We look forward to providing our high-quality products to our oil and gas partners and other end users in the EU. TÜV SÜD’s certification of our engineering and manufacturing processes provides further proof that Clarke Valve can meet even the most rigorous standards, and is a serious player in the control valve market.”
To date, the shutter valve has secured nine patents worldwide, with several others pending.
