QUICK-ACTING SLIDE VALVE GATEX – EXPLOSION ISOLATION SYSTEM

The quick-acting slide valve GatEx is used for complete closure of a pipe, therefore it is suitable for protection of production technologies with danger
of dust explosion.
ADVANTAGES:
• Can be used for pipes above the DN 50 size
• Pressure resistance of up to 17 bar
• Extremely fast reaction time
• Short installation distance

Suitable for pneumatic conveying
lines, exhausting lines and
technologies constructed for
maximum explosion pressure
