Minimal deadleg
The unique sealing weir of the GEMÜ valve body sits very tightly against the tank wall, meaning that the dead space in the tank itself is kept to an absolute minimum. The geometry has been designed with special kidney-shaped contours in such a way that the tanks can be optimally drained, cleaned and sterilized.
Customer specifications
To ensure that the outlet or tank valve fulfils the strict requirements of sterile applications, GEMÜ also offers customized designs alongside its standard versions. You can use our P600B specification sheet to formulate your tank valve requirements and then get in touch with your contact partner.

The tank valve in stainless steel, GEMÜ P600B, comprises one or more diaphragm valve seats. It is possible to choose between manual, pneumatic and motorized actuator versions. The downstream media is isolated using a diaphragm.
The pneumatically operated GEMÜ P40 PD tank bottom valve is designed for use in sterile applications. The sealing concept of the valve is based on the GEMÜ PD technology consisting of a radial sealing PTFE diaphragm, whereby the actuator is hermetically separated from the medium.
The GEMÜ 643 2/2-way tank bottom valve has a manual side mounted gear operator with a plastic handwheel. An integral optical position indicator is standard. The stainless steel valve body is machined from a single block (monoblock, no welded components). The metal distance piece and the operator housing are made from stainless steel.
