The shut-off valve for pressure regulators is a functional and robust component that has been developed for the safe operation of CO2 and nitrogen pressure regulators and intermediate pressure regulators. It is used to control and interrupt the flow of gas so that the pressure reducer or regulator can be safely installed and maintained without uncontrolled gas escaping. This shut-off valve is used in systems that operate with CO2 (carbon dioxide), nitrogen, or mixed gases.
Product description:
1. Application and function:
-
1-line: The shut-off valve is designed for use with single gas sources. It allows easy control of the gas flow in individual pressure systems.
-
Gas types: The shut-off valve is suitable for CO2 (carbon dioxide) as well as nitrogen and other mixed gases. It is typically used in pressure systems used in the food industry, medicine, catering, and technology.
-
Shut-off function: The main purpose of the shut-off valve is to switch the gas flow in the pressure reducer or regulator on or off. This allows complete control over the gas supply, prevents leaks, and ensures safe operation.
2. Material and construction:
-
Robust material: The shut-off valve is made of high-quality, corrosion-resistant metal or brass. These materials offer high resistance to mechanical stress and the chemical properties of the gases.
-
Grease-free design: Especially in applications with CO2 and nitrogen, it is important that the shut-off valve is grease-free to ensure safe operation and gas purity. A grease-free design prevents grease or lubricants from mixing with the gas and possibly causing contamination or malfunctions.
3. Connection and mounting:
-
Threaded connections: The shut-off valve is usually equipped with standard connections that allow it to be seamlessly integrated into existing pressure regulators or intermediate pressure regulators. These connections are often designed as 1/4" AG, 3/8" AG, or 5/8" AG, depending on the system.
-
Easy operation: The shut-off valve usually has a hand lever or rotary handle that allows manual control of the gas flow. The user can quickly and easily regulate or shut off the gas flow by turning or pressing the lever.
4. Safety features:
-
Pressure resistance: The shut-off valve is designed for use in pressure systems and can withstand the pressures occurring in the respective systems. It prevents gas from escaping or dangerous situations from arising in the event of an unwanted increase in pressure.
-
Leakage protection: An important safety feature of the shut-off valve is its ability to interrupt the gas flow and thus prevent gas from escaping from the system. This function is crucial for preventing gas leaks and ensuring the safety of the entire installation.
5. Advantages:
-
Easy installation and maintenance: The shut-off valve can be easily integrated into an existing system and is easy to maintain and clean.
-
Durability: Thanks to the use of corrosion-resistant materials, the shut-off valve offers a long service life and reliable performance for many years.
-
Flexibility: It is suitable for use in both stationary and mobile applications and can be installed at various points in the gas supply system.
6. Application and areas of use:
-
CO2 and nitrogen systems: The shut-off valve is often used in CO2 or nitrogen pressure reducers and intermediate pressure regulators, which are used in food processing, the beverage industry (e.g., beer and wine dispensing systems), medicine (e.g., in ventilators), or technical applications (e. Gas supply systems: It is used when the gas flow must be interrupted, whether for maintenance work, repairs, or shutting down the system.
-
Gas supply systems: It is used when the gas flow must be interrupted, whether for maintenance work, repairs, or to shut down the system.
Conclusion:
The shut-off valve for pressure regulators is an indispensable component for the safe handling of gases in pressure systems. With its robust design, safe shut-off function, and flexible handling, it is ideal for use in a wide range of industrial, commercial, and medical applications. The ability to precisely control and interrupt the gas flow ensures increased safety and protects the connected devices from damage and leaks.
