With our technical expertise in design, manufacturing, and installation, a well-designed valve tray generally provides the most economically viable solution for grassroots column construction projects. Valve trays combine high capacity and excellent efficiency with a wide operating range. Leveraging proprietary design techniques and a comprehensive range of valve types, Saiptech's design engineers can assist you in optimizing performance for your specific application.

Common Types

• Float Valves — Round & Rectangle
• Fixed Valves
• Caged Valves
• Mini Type
• Snap In

Material of Construction

Fractionation trays are fabricated from a wide variety of materials. When corrosion is expected to be extremely low and design temperatures are not excessive, carbon steel is a logical choice due to its favorable mechanical properties, malleability, and cost-effectiveness. However, since the material of construction is dictated by the process conditions of each particular system for which the trays will be used, many different types may be required — each with unique properties that allow the material to resist corrosion and maintain its strength at elevated temperatures.

The most common tray materials utilized by Saiptech are listed below (in order from least to most expensive):

• Carbon steel
• Stainless steel: 410s/304/316L/321/904L
• 2205/2507 Duplex Steel
• Titanium
• Zirconium
• Monel 400
• Hastelloy C276
