CCI Celebrates Nearly 50 Years of Providing Solutions in Severe Service Applications

CCI, or Control Components Inc., was created in 1961 by Richard Self, who started the company when he saw a need for valves that could handle very high-pressure liquid hydrogen and oxygen. It was during his research that the right-angle tortuous flow path of the CCI DRAG^® valve trim was conceived. The industry acknowledged this concept as a “great leap forward” in valve design, and in the 1980s, the Instrument Society of America recognized Self for his contribution to the advancement of flow control technology.

In 1971, Self sold CCI to the Babcock and Wilcox Company to finance the rapidly growing company. Later in 1981, British-based IMI, which also saw the growth potential of DRAG^® in the industry, acquired CCI. Due to the company’s success in the 1980s and 1990s, CCI acquired the Sulzer Company’s Thermtec division in 1997 and BTG Valves in 2001.

As the world’s leading supplier of severe service controls, CCI strives to expand its outstanding portfolio of products and services. CCI Italy (formerly STI) designs and produces linear pneumatic actuators and accessories for severe service and develops accessories for actuators.

Furthermore, Fluid Kinetics, which CCI acquired in 2003, extends CCI’s leadership by adding more solutions to CCI’s resume. Fluid Kinetics is a premier supplier of customized industrial silencers to the power, oil and gas, and industrial gases markets. The combination of Fluid Kinetics’ in-depth silencer expertise and CCI’s severe service knowledge and experience positions CCI to provide superior noise solutions to meet customers’ unique needs.

Later in 2003, Herion-Werke KG GmbH Nuclear Process and Nuclear Process Control products were formally transferred from IMI Norgren to CCI. CCI manufactures the Herion solenoid-operated valves, which are used extensively in the nuclear power industry, at its CCI-AG facilities in Winterthur, Switzerland.

In 2005 CCI strengthened its presence in Asia with the acquisition of ABB KK in Japan, a leading provider of severe service control valves to the Japanese power industry.

Most recently in March 2006, CCI’s parent company,IMI announced the acquisition of the Truflo group, specialists in valves and related flow control products. The Truflo Group serves a number of niche market sectors including oil and gas, nuclear, petrochemical and marine applications. Truflo has manufacturing plants and other facilities in the UK, Italy, France, Belgium, Germany and Canada. These synergies support CCI’s commitment to meet its customers’ needs by offering quality products backed by superior service.
