I haven't had to supply the critical temperature for my instrumentation people but they do want the critical pressure. Fisher (at least) uses the vapor pressure and the critical pressure to calculate what they call a cavitation index and they use that to determine what portion of the actual pressure drop is used for valve sizing.
has a control valve handbook somewhere there (couldn't find it, sorry) that is an excellent book to review.
