During long, cold months, fluid automation products must perform well under harsh, frigid conditions, often unattended - and frequently at remote sites that render repair or replacement more difficult than usual. Even in warmer climates, cold storage or low temperature processing lines present special challenges for material flexibility and seal integrity. A new white paper from ASCO Numatics, "Cold Hard Facts: Five Key Criteria for Selecting Low-Temperature Valves," examines five key qualities to examine when selecting valves, cylinders and other fluid automation devices for application in low ambient temperatures: reliability, testing and compliance, selection variety, low-power capabilities, and support options.
