Hattersley supports cutting-edge scientific research

Building services throughout the UK’s largest science facility to be built for 30 years have their valve requirements met by equipment from Hattersley. The company supplied some £500 000-worth products, including check valves, strainers and commissioning sets. They were installed by Haden Young for control of all heating, ventilating and air-conditioning systems and chilled-water circuits. The extensive plant room of the Diamond Light Source synchrotron project in Oxfordshire also houses 400 mm butterfly valves — some of the largest valves produced. Ian Marshall, project engineer with Haden Young, commented, ‘This was a massive construction project, and the piped-services specification was very demanding. We have always found Hattersley products reliable, and through distributors BSS could supply the complete range of valves required — on demand and at the right price.’ Hattersley valves were also specified and installed by Haden Young for the adjoining ISIS Project scientific research building. As well as a range of butterfly, ball and check valves, Hattersley also supplied differential-pressure control valves to ensure control valves operate efficiently and allow energy savings through the efficient use of variable-speed pumps.
