Custom Valve Tags for Complex Piping and Process Systems
Valve tags installed on industrial piping infrastructures provide clear and concise identification of points of control and facilitate accurate understanding of control instructions as well as absolute identification of specific points for maintenance operations. They enhance safety, efficiency and control. In the oil and gas industry LDAR Tags facilitate compliance with EPA Fugitive Emissions Monitoring mandates.
But many plants face persistent challenges:
- Faded or corroded tags that compromise safety procedures
- Hard-to-read markings in high-heat or chemical environments
- Lack of standardization across valves and pipelines
- Difficult or time-consuming replacement processes
Express valve tags provide durable, compliant identification and tracking solutions for demanding industrial environments, top specifications including:
- Extreme Durability: Premium anodized aluminum, stainless steel, and brass construction withstand repeated abrasion, salt spray, freeze-thaw cycles, and caustic chemicals.
- Superior Readability: Sub-surface imaging and high-contrast marking methods ensure clear legends, barcodes, and numbering remain legible for decades.
- Flexible Customization: Sequential or non-sequential numbering, EPA-compliant, custom sizes and shapes, and full-color coding.
- Reliable Data Capture: Add barcodes to enable rapid location data capture, maintenance records, and asset tracking in real-time.
- Compliance & Safety Assurance: Built to meet rigorous standards for process control and leak detection programs.
