Portland Valve is a part of the CIRCOR family, and manufactures a full line of high-performance butterfly valves as well as the controls to accompany them, together creating dependable valving systems for a wide range of Navy applications.

The company's test loop provides the proper flow to accurately set the regulators for all styles of regulating valves. Consequently‚ no fine tuning of these valves is required during installation and all valves meet the requirements for system commissioning (plug-and-go).

Aside from regulating valves‚ Portland Valve is capable of refurbishing all valve types which they manufacture and many types they did not manufacture originally.
