VALVE RELEASE

Glenfield Invicta are specialist in water management and leak detection. We provide aftersales support to the UK’s water companies and industrial customers. 

Utilising a state-of-the-art designed technology, our engineers can release seized valves, operate difficult to open valves, and seat passing valves, where other systems fail. 

Our valve-friendly solutions apply different levels of control torque to suit each situation and application. We’re able to monitor the valve at all times to ensure there’s no damage during the freeing process.

We’re able to apply the precise forces needed to free your valve using a portable actuator, compression vibration tooling and bespoke valve adaptions, ensuring release without causing lasting damage.

The systems are small, light and easily maneuverable into most installation and locations. It affords us the opportunity to operate valves without isolating, allowing for a fast and effective solution with zero downtime.

Features & Benefits of our valve release service:

  • Highly Skilled team of OEM trained Engineers
  • Process releases valves of any size, age, or level of seizure
  • We guarantee to release your valve and restore it to working order

VALVE REPACKING

We’re more than valve and flow control specialists. As both manufacturers and maintainers of valves, we understand the issues our customers can face when repacking valves. It’s this insight that’s enabled us to develop an offering for a variety of aftersales solutions that really suit our customers, it’s all about maximizing uptime of their installed assets.

Our team of engineers have years of experience repacking valves; it’s part of our everyday routine maintenance, using OEM supplied packing, made especially to suit the valve.

Valve packing forms a pressure seal that keeps the process media (water, sewage) from leaking.

Over time, the packing will wear, relax, loosen and begin to leak due to valve cycling. Media that leaks out of a valve can be costly, messy, or even harmful to health and the environment; so finding the right solution is extremely important.
