Ball valves fire-safe design


Application:

Böhmer fire-safe ball valves have been designed that in case of fire, metallic seal seats, together with heat-resistent materials, will provide an emergency sealing. This guarantees safe operation in emergencies even at temperatures above +650°C.

In compliance with the specifications of BS 6755, section 2, 1987, Böhmer ball valves were tested by the independent Soba Test Institute and are allowed to be classified as fire-safe.

Due to this classification, Böhmer fire-safe type ball valves can be used in, among others, the petrochemical and gas industries.
