Recently, Profire Energy, Inc., a technology company which manufactures, installs and services burner management systems and other combustion technologies for the oil and gas industry, has  announced that it will begin to sell a new proprietary valve actuator, the VM80, to compete with the industry's leading valve actuators that have been widely utilized to control fuel gas in many of the oil and gas industry's firetube vessels.

 

The valve actuator, which is electrically controlled—sits atop a valve, and serves as a valve's controlling component. VM80 is designed to work seamlessly with the other burner management systems, and the price of valve actuator is expected to be more competitive than any other of the industry's electronic valves. It may also take place many of the valves that the Company currently resells from large valve companies.

 

"We are expecting this new valve actuator to be a strong offering in the current market," said Harold Albert, Chief Operating Officer of Profire. "It is designed to meet the requirements of our customers in function, price, and ease-of-use. We feel that it will only bolster more sales of our flagship burner management systems, which continue to be our primary focus in our sales efforts."
