Gas valves

Safety-tested gas valves
for maximum process reliability.

Certified according to EN 161 for industrial combustion plants.

Reliability and safety for your gas application

Gas valves are safety-critical components for controlling flammable and technical gases in industrial processes. Our valves are type-tested to the highest standards (e.g., EN 161) to ensure reliable shutoff and precise control in demanding environments such as thermal processing plants.

Technical features and areas of application

To help you make an informed choice, you will find an overview of the key features of our gas valves here.
