High-pressure equipment must be able to withstand demanding requirements without compromising safety while providing top performance. Typical examples include liquid pumps, gas boosters, air amplifiers and system components such as valves, fittings, and tubing.

At MAXPRO, we supply a wide range of high-pressure industrial equipment and testing systems to meet different customer needs. Below we outline our product selection.

Maximator valves offer reliable performance in some of the most demanding applications. They feature all stainless-steel construction for excellent corrosion resistance, PTFE/Carbon packing for thermal resistance up to 450° F, and a non-rotating stem to prevent galling the valve seat.

Available options include:

• Six pressure ranges
• Six valve body patterns
• Low and high-temperature arrangements for operation between -423 to 1,200° F
• Vee stem for on/off operation or regulating stem for controlling flow

Check out our high-pressure valves page for more information on these products.

Maximator high-pressure fittings are suitable for use in gas and liquid applications. They are made from 316L stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance and available in numerous port sizes and pressures ratings to support different customer requirements. Connection options include the industry standard coned and threaded style connection as well as National Pipe Thread (NPT).

Our high-pressure fitting selection includes:

• Adapters
• Bulkheads
• Couplings
• Crosses
• Elbows
• Nipples
• Tees

If one of our standard products or systems does not meet your specifications, our engineering staff will gladly design a custom system based on your unique specifications. By leveraging over 250 years of collective experience, our high-pressure engineering team will develop an appropriate solution for nearly any pressure challenge.

High-pressure equipment supports operations in a wide range of industries. Some of the industries that regularly rely on high-pressure products and systems include:

• Oil and Gas. In the oil and gas industry, high-pressure air amplifiers are used to keep pipeline valves pressurized during system outages and other emergencies. High-pressure tubing is utilized to facilitate the extraction of oil and gas. Pressure testing equipment is employed to help prevent unsafe operating conditions.
• Chemical/Petrochemical. In the chemical and petrochemical industries, high-pressure tubing is used to facilitate fluid handling in various operations. Pressure testing systems are employed to ensure chemical processing equipment is safe and efficient with leak-free integrity before use.
• High Pressure Food Processing (HPP). In the food processing industry, high-pressure liquid pumps and gas boosters are utilized to aid food production operations. Pressure testing systems are used to evaluate the effectiveness of equipment used in high-pressure food preservation and other applications. Maxpro also stocks tubing to keep your HPP machine running.
