Check valves for installation between two flanges
Check valves open autonomously by the pressure which is exerted by the working medium upon the valve disc. They start to open at a differential pressure of 0.01 to 0.05 bar and are fully open between 0.1 and 0.2 bar. As soon as the flow is interrupted or the flow direction is reversed, the valve closes automatically. The closing function is supported by the elastic force of the spring or by the valve disc’s own weight. RVZ check valves are designed for installation between two counterflanges that are attached directly to the valve housing. With this design the medium flow is not being diverged as it is the case for other check valve types. GEA check valves are designed for installation in the refrigerant circulation of industrial refrigeration systems. They are installed on the pressure or suction side of compressors or in pipes in which only one direction of flow is intended.

The impact of global warming is increasingly apparent all over the world. Towns and cities everywhere face the same challenge: providing their communities with reliable, affordable, sustainably sourced heat. GEA spoke with an expert in the field, Kenneth Hoffmann, Manager, Heat Pumps at GEA Heating & Refrigeration Technologies, about tackling global warming faster.
Something caught Farmer Tom's eye. Instead of another product demo, GEA showcased innovations via AR. That's only the start of GEA's interactive digital farm.
GEA scientists are working with researchers at the Graz University of Technology to configure a homogenization process and technology that turns eucalyptus pulp into 3D-printed, organic structures mimicking human veins, arteries and other tissues.
