Engineered Valve Solutions
Powders, Dry Bulk Materials, And Slurries
Powders, dry bulk materials, and slurries come in a wide range of sizes, textures, and consistencies. Gemco Valve provides solutions for the full range of materials, applications, and processes. Including light density materials such as foods and pharmaceuticals; Challenging bulk solids such as sand, gravel, metal powder, and ceramics; Plus, many other demanding applications in general chemical and solids processing industries. Gemco Valves can meet your sanitary, high temperature, and corrosive environment specifications.
The Gemco Valve Advantage
Learn About The Three Major Advantages Of The Gemco Valve Design
Full Port Openings
Gemco Valve’s solution for material bridging: Unlike a butterfly valve the shutoff disc swings completely out of the flow of the material preventing bridging and promoting mass flow.
Self-Cleaning Areas
Gemco Valve’s solution for material jamming: Unlike a gatevalve, the self-cleaning action tends to wipe the material away from the sealing area instead of jamming abrasives into the sealing track.
No Pinch Points
Gemco Valve’s solution for material packing: With a spherical disc or dome valve shape there are no tight cavities for materials to pack and jam-up causing the seat to tear or the operation to cease.
Featured Valve
P21 High Performance Spherical Disc
Engineered for the most demanding applications in general chemical, pharmaceutical and most solids processing industries. The P21 Valve is designed to ASME standards for applications from full vacuum up to 10 barg (150 PSIg), over a range of temperatures up to 200°C (392°F), depending on the valve size. Higher pressures and temperatures are engineered to order. It is available in most alloys including carbon steel, stainless steel, Hastelloy and titanium. The P21 is offered with standard ANSI or DIN flanges and ISO actuator mounting. It can be configured with a solid reinforced Teflon (RPTFE) seat, metal seat for or inflatable seat for bi-directional ANSI Class VI sealing. Options include the full range of sanitary finishes and clean-in-place (CIP) spray balls or nozzles.
