RSV

Active isolation at maximum explosion pressures.

Whether for silos, mills or extraction systems, our slide valves enable safe isolation, and are also available for demanding CIP, dust or gas applications. The RSV slide valve is suitable for the isolation of fully developed explosions to the maximum explosion pressure.

Application

The RSV Slide is available nominal pipe sizes from DN 50 to DN 500. Thanks to its practical design, knife gate valves are suitable for all flow velocities and dust loads, they do not cause any pressure drop, and can be installed vertically, horizontally or at any angle in pressurized or vacuum applications.

Advantages

Wide application range
Extremely short closing times.
Short installation distances thanks to a compact design.
Flexible installation options at any angle.
No pressure drop.

Mechanism

The system to be protected is equipped with pressure and/or infrared detectors. These can detect an explosion and send a signal to the knife gate valve. Depending on the size, one or more gas generators are activated, which close the slide valve within milliseconds. The closed slider blade effectively prevents the propagation of flames and pressure waves. Fast closing times also enable extremely short installation distances. During normal operation, the slide valves can be opened and closed pneumatically.
