1160 VPI units have been ordered from Netherlocks by Bilbao Petronor Oil Refinery, part of Spanish oil and gas giant Repsol. Following a very successful three year pilot program, the new equipment will replace existing valve position signalling at the 220.000 barrels-per-day refinery. The VPI’s are connected to a wireless transmitter, enabling a simple implementation of remote feedback on existing valves in a brownfield environment.
Netherlocks closure door locks for pigging systems
Improper operation of pigging system valves can result in equipment damage, injury or death. Netherlocks Safety Systems Closure Locks eliminate the danger to personnel and equipment by ensuring that correct operation procedures are followed every time pigging operations take place.
New touchscreen interlock management system
Netherlock has now launched its new Interlock System Information (ISI) Touch Screen key management device. As a standalone unit or integrated into either a key cabinet or control panel, the ISI Touch Screen stores all relevant information about an interlock system in a digitised, centralised, user-friendly format that is easily accessible by any operator without a need for specialised training.
