Devices to keep the oil temperature of compressors and circuits at a constant level.
TR THERMOSTATIC 3-WAY VALVES
GEA thermostatic 3-way valves are used in the oil management systems of compressors and circuits. They automatically control the temperature of the oil flow within defined tolerances based on the thermal linear deformation of the integrated thermostatic control elements. The inlets and the outlet are equipped with flanges as per DIN EN 1092-1, in pressure stages PN 25, PN 40, PN 63 and/or flanges as per ASME B16.5 150lbs, 300lbs. Welding ends and brazed ends are also available upon request. When the warm oil reaches the thermostatic control units, they expand and open a gap for the cold oil. The warm oil (e. g. from the oil separator) and the cooled oil (e. g. from the oil cooler) now start to mix and thereby maintain an almost constant oil temperature at the outlet of the thermostatic 3-way valve.

Fueling the circular economy in shipping
Ports now compete not just on logistics, but on sustainability. At Greece’s Piraeus port, an advanced processing and recovery facility recycles ship waste oil into fuel. Equipped with GEA’s high-performance centrifuges, it sets a new benchmark for state-of-the-art, environmentally responsible port operations.
Closing the loop: key lessons for breweries from OeTTINGER
The 2022 CO2 shortage forced breweries to review their dependency on global supply chains. Many were forced to close, unable to carbonate their products. At its breweries in Germany, OeTTINGER GETRÄNKE is turning its own CO2 into a powerful lever for independence and sustainability – with the help of CO2 recovery technology from GEA.
