Diaphragm valve bodies with ANSI and BS flanges

The GEMÜ620 with pneumatic membrane actuator and the GEMÜ675 manual valve are now available with new connections and valve body materials.

Bodies with flanges to BS10Table E and flanges to ANSI class 125/150 RF, both with length EN558, series7, ISO5752 basic series7, have been added to our range.

These two connections are now available in valve body materials EN-GJS-500-7 (GGG 50) with PFA and PP lining in nominal sizes DN25-150.

These body versions offer high resistance to corrosive acids and alkalis and can be used at operating pressures of up to 10bar. They are usually combined with PTFE diaphragms.

The new valve body materials are mainly used in the chemical industry, mining, and the extraction of iron, non-ferrous and precious metals.

GEMÜ Gebr. Müller Apparatebau GmbH & Co. KG is based in Ingelfingen, Germany.
