Young & Franklin (YF) is the premier manufacturer of robust turbine control valves.

In April 2011 CMA was appointed as the YF authorised Repair and Overhaul facility for Australia and New Zealand. To achieve this our technicians underwent extensive training at Y&F’s facility in Syracuse, New York and our workshop has been inspected by Y&F and been certified to test and repair Y&F valves. Our repairs and testing are carried out to the same standards and have the same warranty as the OEM factory repair.

In June 2012 CMA were appointed the exclusive reseller of YF valves for Australia and New Zealand. Please contact us for spare YF valves or for spare parts for YF valves.

Young & Franklin and its subsidiary, Tactair Fluid Controls Inc., are manufacturers of controls used by the land-based turbine, aircraft, defence and oil industries. The company, founded in 1918, is privately owned and is located in Liverpool, a suburb of Syracuse, New York.

 

Electrically Actuated Gas Control

Y&F has a new generation of “All Electric Actuators” that removes the need for hydraulic actuation of Gas Control and IGV actuators. These are being used on new GE oil and gas turbines and are being retrofitted to some of the Frame series Heavy Duty GE turbines.
