spring safety valve / for steam

Being part of the proven K?HME high-performance valve series for industrial applications, the valve type KVF is used in any application area for which the quick and safe shut-off of process steam is required. The electro-pneumatically controlled quick-closing valve sets standards in regards to service life and reliability even in the most demanding applications.

Media: vaporous
Applications: Power plant technology, Steelworks, Refineries & Petrochemical sector,
Industrial combustion

Application areas
Automatic shut-off valve within steam pipe systems in all industrial areas

Nominal size: DN 15 to DN 50
Operating pressure: max. 40.0 bar g (depending on the operating temperature)
Operating temperature: max. + 400?C

Advantages
- Closing time< 1 sec
- High safety level through zero leakage
- Heavy duty design for high amount of operating cycles
- High-performance valve with a long service life

Function
The quick-closing valve is actuated by a pneumatic actuator with a solenoid control valve. Automatic quick-closing is carried out by the installed spring force in less than 1 second. Absolute tightness (leakage rate A in acc. with EN 12266-1) is guaranteed long term by means of the specially machined valve cone and a 4/2-way control via solenoid valve.
