An EFCO valve test bench consists of a clamping unit and a control panel
for operation, measurement, and control. The test piece is held securely by
the clamping device and sealed on inlet and outlet for the test. Clamping
forces up to about 1500 t can be implemented (on request even higher).

The operating/measuring/control unit (console) is used for the actual test

(filling of the valve, building up of test pressure, controlling the clamping
unit, measuring of test pressure).

We also offer small, portable test units for mobile applications. These test
units do not have a clamping unit and can be used to build up test pressure
and measure it (e.g. for tank tests).

VALVE-DOC
EFCO-VALVE-DOC
The EFCO-Valve-Doc is a documentation and administration system for
valve test:

• Mobile or stationary device for the acquisition, analysis and

documentation of valve tests
• Suitable for all test benches on the market
• User friendly
• Designed with the latest technology
• Available in several languages

The EFCO-Valve-Doc is ready to be used; all software is installed and con-

figured. It only needs to be plugged in, and the pressure transducers need to
be connected to the valve test bench.
It is to log, record and analyse:
• Set-pressure and seat leakage tests of safety valves and / or
• Body leakage and seat leakage tests of shut-off valves

EFCO-BOOSTER
BOOSTER

Water pressure generation with appropriate high-pressure pumps is inte-

grated in every EFCO valve test bench intended for a water test.

The air/nitrogen test pressure required for testing is provided either via a
high-pressure bottle pre-filled by the customer or via an EFCO Booster.

The EFCO Booster compresses air or nitrogen to 300 bar (4350 psi) (higher
pressures are possible on request).

PS ACCESSORIES
All EFCO valve test benches are equipped with standard accessories and
their function can be extended with optional accessories.
The following are some of the accessories available:
• O-ring sealing plates
• Polyurethane sealing plates (Vulkollan)
• Safety plugs (specially for safety valves)
• Threaded adapters (for the testing of test pieces with threaded end)
• Accumulators
• Digital displays

EFCO ABRASIVES
The EFCO abrasives are perfectly formulated and matched to EFCO machines
through extensive testing. We supply coated abrasives in various grit sizes and
formulations optimised for the application.

Abrasive backing: • Paper

• Cloth
• Film

Grain types: • Aluminium oxide (Al2O3)

• Silicon carbide (SiC)
• Zirconium corundum (ZrO2+ Al2O3)

Grain size: • Standard grit sizes: P80-P1800

(other grit sizes on request)

GSS SERIES
EFCO GSS grinding tools are coated with electroplated cubic crystalline
boron nitride (CBN).
CBN is highly suitable for grinding hard sealing surfaces with a minimum
hardness of 35 HRC such as, for example, steel on cobalt and nickel basis,
highly alloyed steels, chromium steel, etc.
The good heat resistance of CBN in combination with its great hardness
makes economic grinding at the higher machining temperatures of these
steels possible (long life).

EFCOBOR LAPPING COMPOUNDS

In accordance with DIN 8589, lapping is a microfinishing process using a
grain distributed loosely in a liquid or paste (lapping compound) which is
held on a, usually shaped, counterpart (lapping tool).
EFCOBOR lapping compounds are oil soluble lapping pastes of boron
carbide.

Independent of the material hardness, with EFCOBOR it is possible to achieve:

• High surface quality
• Highest dimensional accuracy
• Close dimensional tolerances

EFCOBOR Lapping Paste comes in various grit sizes from F80-F1500 (FEPA)
and pack sizes.
