Product families Steam traps and steam system equipment, boilers, flowmeters, control valves, water and steam analysers

Milestones

  • 1926: The trading company J N Marshall & Co is set up.
  • 1946: Darius Forbes joins the business.
  • Late 1950s: The first factory opens at Kasarwadi, Pune.
  • 1984: Krohne Marshall is formed with KROHNE of Germany for flow and level instruments.

Forbes Marshall products we list

Product Type Typical use
FMTD64 Thermodynamic steam trap Draining steam mains and tracing lines
FLOWIRL 8400 Vortex flowmeter Steam, gas and liquid flow measurement
FM TOC101 Online TOC analyser Organic contamination in condensate return and treated water
AMI Silica Silica analyser Silica monitoring in boiler feedwater, steam and demineralised water
Conductivity standards, pH buffer solutions Calibration consumables Routine calibration of conductivity and pH analysers

A thermodynamic trap like the FMTD64 uses the flash steam above a disc to close and the condensate pressure below it to open. That makes it compact and tolerant of water hammer and superheat, which is why it is common on steam mains. On the water side, silica and TOC analysers protect boilers and turbines, because silica carries over with steam and deposits on turbine blades, and organics in returned condensate break down into acids.

Where Forbes Marshall products are used

In Oman and the GCC, these products are used in boiler houses, power and desalination plants, refineries, petrochemical and fertiliser plants, food and beverage plants and water treatment plants.

FAQ

Questions about Forbes Marshall

Common questions about Forbes Marshall equipment, part numbers and supply to Oman and the GCC.

01What does the Forbes Marshall FM TOC101 measure?
It is an online analyser for total organic carbon in water. TOC is a sum parameter for organic contamination, and the manufacturer describes this model for waste water and effluent, with a range from trace level up to 10,000 ppm. To confirm that the FM TOC101 suits your stream, send the expected TOC range, the salt content of the sample and whether solids are present.
02Why is silica monitored in a steam and water analysis system?
Silica carries over with steam at high pressure and deposits on turbine blades, so power and cogeneration plants monitor it in feedwater, boiler water and steam, and at the outlet of demineralization plants. An online silica analyzer works with reagents, so the inquiry for a unit or its consumables should state the model, the number of sample streams and the measuring range.
03Which pH buffers and conductivity standards should I order?
Order the values your procedure names. pH loops are usually checked with two buffers that bracket the operating point, for example pH 7 with pH 4 or pH 9 or 10. Conductivity standards are chosen close to the measured range, which for pure water loops is very low. Give the nominal values, bottle size and quantity.
04What should I send to get a quotation for Forbes Marshall spare parts?
Send the analyzer model and serial number, a photo of the nameplate, and the part description or number from the manual. If the part is a reagent kit, tubing set or sensor, mention how the analyzer is configured, since kits differ by measuring range and number of streams. We check the item against the manufacturer's documentation before quoting.
05Is Seven Star LLC a distributor of Forbes Marshall?
No. Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier in Muscat. We source Forbes Marshall products through commercial channels and provide the manufacturer's datasheet and the certificates the manufacturer issues with the order on request. We do not represent the manufacturer. We state the origin of each item in our offer.
