Who is FIP and what does it make?

FIP is a brand of valves, fittings and pipes made of thermoplastic materials for industry, in PVC-U, PVC-C, PP-H and PVDF. FIP thermoplastic valves resist corrosion and have good mechanical properties, which is why they are fitted on circuits for acids, bases, treated water and other fluids that attack metal. The range covers two-way and three-way ball valves, butterfly valves, diaphragm valves, check valves, pneumatically or electrically actuated valves and complete piping systems. For a quotation, send us the series from the valve, for example VKD, FK or DK, with the material and diameter.

VKD ball valves have the DUAL BLOCK system and radial removal, meaning the valve can be taken out of the line without dismantling the pipework, and they are used in heavy-duty industrial applications. The same family includes VKR, for flow control with a linear characteristic, and TKD, with three ports, for diverting and mixing. VXE and VEE valves from the Easyfit line have adjustable nut tightening, while SXE and SSE are check valves with a ball and with a spring respectively. FK butterfly valves work on isolation and regulation in industrial applications, while FE is intended for water transport.

DK Dialock diaphragm valves have a handwheel with a patented lock and suit abrasive fluids or fluids with impurities, as do VM valves, which reduce the risk of water hammer, and compact CM valves for tight spaces. The PVC-U system works at pressures of 4, 6, 10 or 16 bar at 20 °C, while PVDF covers temperatures from −40 to +140 °C. Electrically or pneumatically actuated FIP valves, in all four materials, are used in water treatment, the chemical industry and process plants.

What do we supply from the FIP range?

Product	Description

Easyfit VXE valves and SXE/SSE check valves	VXE and VEE ball valves from the Easyfit line, with radial removal and adjustable nut tightening, plus SXE check valves with a spherical obturator and SSE check valves with a spring, both with two union connections for simpler installation on the pipeline.
DK, VM and CM diaphragm valves	DK Dialock diaphragm valves with a handwheel with patented lock, VM valves that reduce the risk of water hammer and compact CM valves for tight spaces, all for regulating and isolating abrasive fluids or fluids with impurities.
FK and FE butterfly valves	FK butterfly valves for isolation and regulation in heavy-duty industrial applications, with a labelling personalisation system, and FE butterfly valves for isolating and regulating water transport lines.

Why FIP?

Four thermoplastic materials — PVC-U, PVC-C, PP-H and PVDF, chosen by fluid and temperature
VKD valves with DUAL BLOCK and radial removal — replacement without dismantling the pipeline
DK Dialock diaphragm valves with a patented handwheel lock — for abrasive fluids or fluids with impurities
PVDF from −40 to +140 °C — valves for aggressive fluids at high temperatures
Pneumatically or electrically actuated valves — the same series, ready for process automation

How do we supply FIP in Romania?

We quote FIP thermoplastic valves: VKD, VKR, TKD and VXE ball valves, FK and FE butterfly valves, DK, VM and CM diaphragm valves, check valves and pneumatically or electrically actuated versions. To choose correctly, send us the series from the valve, the body material (PVC-U, PVC-C, PP-H or PVDF), the seal material, the diameter, the connection type, the pressure, the temperature and the fluid. We bring the valves in on order, through EU supply channels, usually in 1–4 weeks, and delivery takes 24–72 h when the item is available locally or at the supplier. For actuated assemblies the lead time can be longer.

We supply FIP valves as individual items; bonding or welding the thermoplastic connections to the existing pipeline is done by your team, following the jointing instructions for the chosen material.

Frequently asked questions about FIP

What does FIP make?

FIP makes thermoplastic valves, fittings and pipes for industry, in PVC-U, PVC-C, PP-H and PVDF: VKD, VKR and TKD ball valves, FK and FE butterfly valves, DK, VM and CM diaphragm valves, check valves and pneumatically or electrically actuated valves.

How do I choose the material of an FIP valve?

The material is chosen by fluid, temperature and pressure. PVC-U works at 4, 6, 10 or 16 bar at 20 °C, while PVDF covers temperatures from −40 to +140 °C and very aggressive fluids. Send us the fluid, its concentration and the temperature, and we check the chemical compatibility.

How long does it take to bring FIP valves to Romania?

Delivery of an FIP valve takes 24–72 h when the item is available locally or at the supplier. FIP valves ordered through EU import usually arrive in 1–4 weeks. For PVDF, large diameters or actuated valves, depending on brand and specification, the lead time can be longer.

Can we replace a VKD valve without cutting the pipe?

Yes, that is the point of radial removal: VKD, VKR and TKD valves, like VXE from the Easyfit line, are taken out from between the two union connections without dismantling the rest of the line. Send us the series, material and diameter, and we quote the identical valve.

What data do I send for a quotation on actuated FIP valves?

The valve series (for example VKD or FK), the material and diameter, the actuation type (pneumatic single or double acting, electric), the control voltage, the fail-safe position, any need for limit switches or a positioner, and the fluid with its working temperature.

How do I request a FIP quotation?

Send the FIP code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
