Heavy-duty slurry and abrasive media handling in steel production

Steel

Industry Overview

Steel plants present some of the harshest conditions for industrial valves — abrasive slurries, high-temperature gases and aggressive cooling water systems. AIRA's hardened and lined valve ranges are purpose-engineered for steel plant reliability.

Key Challenges

Abrasive iron ore and coal slurry service
Blast furnace gas isolation (CO-rich toxic gas)
High-cycle hydraulic valve applications
Severe duty cooling water systems
Long service intervals in remote plant locations
