VMR63 Regulating Valve

Jacomex Solutions

Gsafe

Description

For hazardous atmospheres, control valves (designed and manufactured by Jacomex) provide reliable, efficient and long-lasting protection for operators and the environment. They were initially developed to ensure the safety of installations in a nuclear environment and have since been used for other applications where the protection of operators is a priority.

These models are designed to operate exclusively on negative pressure glove boxes. In addition, they reduce internal air turbulence and the flow indicator indicates the level of clogging of the HEPA filters.
