IBF1 monobloc shut-off valve for pressure gauges with WIKA flange

Description

IBF1 monobloc shut-off valve for pressure gauges with WIKA flange is designed to, to meet the requirements of the process industry, in particular for the uconsumption with natural gas and aggressive media. The compact design includes a shut-off valve that separates the process from the instrument side.

For use with liquid or dirty media, ball valves are recommended due to the easy cleaning of the flat inner bore. The one-piece housing reduces the number of leak points, thus reducing the risk of media leakage into the environment. The one-piece housing reduces the number of leak points, thus reducing the risk of media leakage into the environment. The design of the valve seat and the redundant valve body seals ensure high durability and tightness. In the event of a failure of the valve’s soft seat, the metal seat will ensure that the valve is still able to function and will place it in a safe position. Leak tightness is ensured for the connection between the process and the measuring instrument and the atmosphere.

The highly machined internal parts of the IBF1 shut-off valve allow very smooth and precise operation, even at high pressures and after long periods of inactivity. The surface treatment helps prevent corrosion by aggressive media and facilitates cleaning.

Scope, applications IBF1

• shut-off valve with venting function as a discharge point for instruments
• oil and gas, chemical and petrochemical, power plants
• for mounting on level indicators or differential pressure instruments for level measurement
• for gaseous and liquid aggressive agents that are highly viscous or crystallising, even in aggressive environments
• direct connection of pressure measuring instruments to flanged piping or vessels without intermediate valves
