Autoclave Engineers, a division of Parker Hannifin, combines high pressure industry knowledge, manufacturing expertise, and technological innovation to offer a broad range of products and services to customers across a wide range of industries. Autoclave designs and manufactures their valves, fittings, tubing & accessories to be safe and reliable while operating under extreme pressure and temperature conditions:
Parker Autoclave Engineers is the market leader, providing valves, fittings & tubing in high pressure/high temperature liquid and gas applications to the petrochemical, chemical, water blast, water jet, and oil & gas industries. Fluid Process Control maintains a large inventory of Parker Autoclave Engineers products available for immediate delivery.
Fluid Process Control also represents Parker Autoclave Engineers complete line of high pressure/high temperature stirred and non-stirred laboratory scale research reactors, MagneDrive® high speed magnetically coupled mixers, catalytic reactors and bench top laboratory reaction systems.
Parker Autoclave Engineers valves are designed to operate safely and reliably at pressures to 150,000 psi (10342 bar). Several important features make this dependable service possible under widely varying conditions.
Needle Valves actuators and other optionsParker Autoclave Engineers offer a complete selection of Austenetic, cold drawn stainless steel tubing designed to match the performance standards of Parker Autoclave Engineers valves and fittings. PAE tubing is manufactured specifically for medium and high pressure applications requiring both strength and corrosion resistance. The tubing is furnished in random lengths between 20 and 26.5 feet (6.1 and 8.0 meter).
Inspection and Testing
Parker Autoclave Engineers tubing is inspected to assure it will be free of seams, laps, fissures or other flaws, as well as carburization or intergranular carbide precipitation. The outside and inside diameters of the tubing are subject to special inspection and are controlled within close tolerances to assure proper fit. Sample pieces of tube for each lot are tested to confirm mechanical properties. Hydrostatic testing is also performed on a statistical basis and is conducted at the working pressure of the tube. Parker Autoclave Engineers will perform 100% hydrostatic testing or autofrettage for high cyclic applications at an additional cost if desired.
Male/female adapters are designed to adapt a female connection direct to another size and/or type of connection. In selecting an adapter involving two different sized connections, the larger connection should be on the male end where it is possible to maximize the mechanical strength of the adapter.
Couplings permit the joining of any combination of standard size Parker Autoclave Engineers tubing with female-to-female couplings.
adapters and couplingsParker Autoclave Engineers relief valves are designed to open proportionally to increasing pressure. Therefore, they are not recommended for applications requiring immediate full valve flow at set pressure and should not be considered a “Safety Valve”. Full flow of relief valve is defined at 10% over set pressure.

Parker Autoclave Engineers high-pressure ball valves have been designed to provide superior quality for maximum performance within a variety of valve styles, sizes, and process connections. Some of the more unique design innovations include an integral one-piece trunnion mounted style ball and stem that eliminates the shear failure common in two piece designs, re-torqueable seat glands that result in longer seat life, and a low friction stem seal that reduces actuation torque and enhances cycle life.

Safe, efficient operation of any product is inherently dependent upon its proper installation. In this section the preparation and assembly of low, medium and high pressure connections is explained. Also covered is the assembly procedure for medium and high pressure Cone & Thread Connections as well as anti-vibration collet gland assemblies.
Correct installation procedures are further promoted by providing dimensional information associated with a variety of Parker Autoclave Engineers tube connections as well as the torque required to properly seat numerous Parker
Autoclave Engineers components. Several tools developed by Parker Autoclave Engineers are presented to help accomplish proper valve, fitting and tubing installation and maintenance.
When installing or maintaining any pressure component, common practice dictates the use of proper safety equipment at all times.
