Case Study: Major California Refinery improves safety and reliability with Valin Corporation's redundant control system

a major California refinery improves process safety with Valin’s two-solenoid valve system and zero single points of failure

A major California refinery required new emergency safety shut-off (chopper) valves for its regeneration process, but faced risks of failure and unplanned shutdowns. Valin Corporation provided guidance and recommended a process valve solution with a critical need for reliable piloting.

Valin Corporation implemented a valve package featuring a proprietary redundant control system from ASCO. This system integrated two solenoid valves, eliminating single points of failure and allowing for automatic periodic testing without taking the safety system offline. The solution enhanced process safety and operational reliability for the refinery, safeguarding both equipment and personnel.
