GEMÜ Ball Valves For Oxygen Application – Extended Valve Range

Listen to this article

GEMÜ extends valve range for highly flammable gases.  GEMÜ BB02, B22, B42 and B52 ball valves have been deemed “suitable for use with oxygen” following a comprehensive examination by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM).

This marks a valuable addition to the existing range of solutions, which already includes globe and diaphragm valves as well as butterfly valves for oxygen.

The ball valve series was examined in strict compliance with DIN EN 1797 and ISO 21010, and clear conditions for safe use were defined during this process: GEMÜ BB02, B22, B42 and B52 ball valves are suitable for the use of gaseous oxygen provided the operating temperature does not exceed 60 °C  and the maximum operating pressure is 30 bar.

PTFE seals and O-rings made from fluorinated rubber (FKM) are used as the seal materials. GEMÜ customers can order the special “O” version of the ball valves for use with oxygen.
