History of Valves

Valves are used in regulating the flow of a fluid. The Roman Empire was unmatchable in early days in controlling and storage of fresh waters. In fact the castellum was the first water Sewerage system in the historic city of Pompeii. 

The distribution and regulation of water from the aqueduct through 3 outlets was done by the castellum. Egg shaped Lead Pipe was used in the transportation of water. Unfortunately the  ancient city of Pompeii was buried under the volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.
The excavations have led to the finding of bronze valves which were used to pump water uphill to the castellum.

With the technological advancement in the modern times our piping system as a whole have improved dramatically. Valves are being used in wide range of industry and are also being governed by different regulations. The various governing standards as per region are ISO,ANSI,EN,BSI,DIN,JSA etc. 

These valves handle pressures in excess of 2500 PSI and temperature of around thousand degree Fahrenheit. This makes them vulnerable to leaks and failures.

We at INDANA are bringing these spillage in control and giving a safe channel for the fluid to pass without making any effective pressure on the walls of a he containing Valve spray shield. These shields are designed for proper fitting to avoid any slightest of spillage. What makes them unique is they have a layer of PTFE stitched on the sides with see through PVC in the middle. This makes visual inspection of leakage from the valves easily possible and thus can result in immediate corrective action. Special ropes and Velcro are used for fastening. These Valve Spray Guards are easy to tie and ideally would take less than 60 seconds.
