    Check valves are used in virtually all types of plants, as well as numerous processes and applications in all industries. GEMÜ offers various types of check valves.
- Diaphragm globe valves
  - Diaphragm globe valves
    
    Diaphragm globe valves from GEMÜ are suitable both for opening/closing applications and for control and dosing applications. The PTFE diaphragms used reliably isolate the medium from the actuator. The valves are easy to clean and, in comparison with valves with bellows, have significantly reduced deadlegs. A pretensioning element included in the actuator guarantees external leak tightness, even with temperature fluctuations and settling of the plastic parts. The valves are available both with straight through bodies and as multi-port valve block systems.

    GEMÜ offers over 100 different fitting options for the production of semiconductors, LEDs, high-purity media, microchips and solar cells with the most common connections in the market. The product range has been expanded to include high-quality tubes for applications with high-purity media.
- Globe valves
  - Globe valves
    
    Globe valves are ideal for fast cycle duties, high temperatures and control applications. Although they are often used for steam control and in the field of water/waste water treatment, they can handle the most diverse of applications in industrial processes, and also in sterile and hygienic applications in the pharmaceutical, food and biotechnology industries. GEMÜ offers globe valves in both straight seat and angle seat designs. Depending on the valve type, both 2/2-way bodies and 3/2-way bodies are available.
- Pilot solenoid valves
  - Pilot solenoid valves
    
    GEMÜ supplies pilot valves for pneumatically operated valves, cylinders and other process components. These stand out thanks to their robust and durable design and precise air dosing.
- Single-Use Valves
  - Single-Use Valves
    
    Single-use valves are used if it is crucial to avoid cross contamination or if a simplified plant design is required. The GEMÜ product range comprises single-use diaphragm valves with manual or pneumatic actuators. The single-use valve body is disconnected from the actuator and disposed of after it is used once. In contrast, the actuator remains in the system for multiple use.
- Solenoid valves
  - Solenoid valves
    
    Solenoid valves are designed for fast cycle duties and are particularly suitable for dosing applications. They are primarily used in the widest range of general industrial applications.
- Strainer
  - Strainer
    
    Strainers are used to filter out contaminants in fluid flows. Depending on the flowing medium, different mesh sizes and materials are available for the filter insert.
- Tools

Spares
- Diaphragms
  - Diaphragms
    
    A diaphragm is the central sealing element in a diaphragm valve. Only the diaphragm and the valve body are in direct contact with the flowing medium. In addition, it ensures external hermetic sealing. Diaphragm production takes place within the GEMÜ group and with certified suppliers. Distinctions are made between soft elastomer and PTFE diaphragms. Diaphragms for weir-type diaphragm valves have the tried and tested GEMÜ seal system up to a nominal size of DN 100.

Applications
Customer solutions

Outlet and tank valves

Tank valves are often welded to the lowest point in the base of the tank for use as outlet valves. This allows the tank to be fully drained, cleaned and sterilized. In addition to this, valves can also be fitted or welded to the tank cover, as well as fitted or welded to the tank wall.

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 B600 spezification sheet to formulate your tank valve requirements and then get in touch with your contact partner.
