TNO prefabrication orbital cutting and beveling from Protem


T


he TNO machines cleanly and efficiently cut and bevel tubes and pipes with diameters ranging from 4.5” ID to 72” OD (114.3 mm ID to 1829 mm OD). These High Speed, Prefabrication


Orbital Cutting and Beveling machines, are specially designed to fit your piping or tubing prefab applications on the job site or at your fabrication workshop. You will find that these machines cut and bevel heavy wall pipes faster than any other machine! The TNO range of machines are electrically driven and equipped with a hydraulic power unit for


the automatic clamping system. Clamping screws located on the front and back of the machine adjust the concentricity and create a perfect alignment and perfect squaring. There are many benefits to the TNO machines. They are portable, rigid, fast and accurate. They save space in your workshop, or can be integrated into your production lines. They also save man hours by avoiding grinding operations, flame cutting, difficult handling and setting of pipes on a lathe. Most importantly, they always provide outstanding results in a short amount of time, with unmatched quality and precision you can count on!


Albion Valves setting the standard in combustibles


Albion Valves (UK) Ltd, an increasingly popular UK valves supplier has secured ATEX approval across their range of stainless steel valves, in order to help take the headache of complex European legislation compliance away from their distributors. Making safety a priority, ATEX is a directive from the European Union which requires member states including the UK to comply with a specific set of health and safety regulations, designed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion arising from dangerous substances in the workplace. The new directive will become mandatory in April 2016. The ATEX directive applies to


8 IMT September 2015


electrical and mechanical equipment intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres including; mines, factories, sewage plants, biomass, oil and gas, corrosive metals, dusts and chemicals. Securing ATEX approval means


that the function of Albion’s stainless steel valve range is certified for use in potentially explosive environments, and guaranteed not to spark if they come into contact with a combustible foreign body. The ATEX directive also requires


the traceability of products including valves and fitting to be ensured throughout the whole supply chain ensuring that manufacturers,


authorized representatives, importers and distributors all guarantee that the product they place on the market complies with this directive.


Les Littlewood, Albion


Valves (UK) Ltd, Sales Director commented: “Ensuring that products and systems meet the requirements of the ATEX Directive can be a complex and time consuming process. We have taken this headache away from our distributors by doing the research and securing approvals well in advance of the new legislation. The ATEX certification mark means that the equipment is

suitable for use in an explosive or combustible environment. Our distributors can now have peace of mind that the products they buy are both compliant and fit for purpose.” Legislation enables the free


trading of ATEX products within the European, Economic Area (EEA) by removing the need for separate documentation and testing for each individual European market. Manufacturers may use a single CE mark on their products to show compliance with this (and any other relevant) directive. For further information visit: www. albionvalvesuk.com, call 01226 729900
