Ball valves can be supplied either with a reduced or full clearance by default, allowing for quick opening or closing by adjusting a lever at a 90° angle. As an alternative, ball valves can be equipped with pneumatic or electric activation as well as a cover extension.
Standard ball valves have a reduced bore.
The ball is fitted with a vent hole and closes tight only in the flow direction.
Shut-off valves are suitable for installation in the refrigerant cycles of industrial refrigeration systems. Butterfly valves are valves with a disc as locking unit that is rotatable within the medium flow. They allow for quick opening or closing by moving a lever at a 90° angle. Alternatively, butterfly valves can be supplied with pneumatic or electric activation.

MAP is used to package meat, poultry, fish, salads, whole and cut vegetables and fruits, as well as processed and convenience foods, bakery products and dairy.
