Thermostatic Control Applications
Aerospace & Defense is a wide and varied industry encompassing products from tanks and submarines to commercial jets and spacecraft. While their operating ranges may differ, they must all factor in thermal control to get where they’re going. Our thermostatic control technology has been implemented into many aerospace & defense applications throughout the years, only a few of which are featured below.
Thermal Bypass
Our thermal bypass valves (TBVs) are integrated into oil, fuel, and hydraulic systems to continuously monitor fluid temperatures and automatically divert flow when needed to maintain the optimal temperature within the system. Fluid below the valve’s set-point temperature is bypassed to a reservoir or bypass loop while fluid at or above the set-point is diverted to the system’s cooler.
These valves shorten warm-up times, reduce back pressure in the return, and extend overall system life.

Thermal Actuators
Precise thermal control is boiled down to one powerful ingredient – a thermal actuator that can be integrated anywhere. For projects with strict space or weight requirements and unique applications, we offer stand-alone thermostatic control actuators and cartridges.
These can be easily implemented into an existing manifold or system, with no need for weighty external valve housings.

Freeze Protection
Cold weather can wreak havoc on exposed water-bearing systems, especially those supplying critical safety and operational equipment. Even systems with traditional heat-tracing can be vulnerable, should a malfunction occur, leaving operators unaware until the damage has already been done.
Our thermostatic freeze protection valves replace manual drain valves to protect investments, eliminate human error, and significantly reduce utility costs.

Scald Protection
Accidental exposure to boiling water is a recipe for disaster. Both emergency stations and everyday point-of-use fixtures can release scalding-hot water due to solar radiation, backflow, or system malfunctions/failures.
Our thermostatic scald protection valves constantly monitor water or air temperatures and can interrupt flow to prevent injuries from overheated water.
