Pneumatrol are controlled by a solenoid . A solenoid is an electrically controlled mechanism that , when activated by a button press , opens or closes a gas flow or valve . In other words , the button controls the solenoid valve , which then allows the gas to flow . Our unique selling point is that a lot of our solenoids are approved for use in hazardous areas , so they can operate in environments where there is a risk of explosion due to gas or dust clouds . When a device containing compressed air has an electrical component , such as a solenoid , in an environment with the potential for explosions , it is crucial to ensure that the solenoid or device cannot cause an explosion or fire .
Precise and reliable
“ These products are designed for the process and industrial sectors and are used in petrochemical , pharmaceutical , brewing , and distilling plants . Despite being a small business , we supply our products globally , with two-thirds of our output being direct exports going all over the world . Different international standards cover explosionproof specifications , and we have products
approved to standards for nearly every part of the industrialized globe , namely North and South America , Europe , India , Japan , Korea , and Australia .
“ Additionally , we cater to the arduous environments of the transport sector , with products that can be mounted on the underside of trains , for example . Through the ROSS brand , we supply many products used in glass bottle blowing machines , which are large , complex , and potentially dangerous machines operating at high speeds . This then feeds into a strategically important area for us at ROSS Pneumatrol , which is fluid power safety , a market where we believe we can grow and serve well by teaching customers to better understand the risks that can exist through fluid power within their plants and allow them to control those more safely ,” he elaborates .
Such critical products require precise and reliable manufacturing methods , which is why ROSS Pneumatrol embraces technological advancements . “ When investing in new machinery and technology , we require them to produce quality parts for as much of the 24-hour day as possible . To ensure this is
