Butterfly valve type GD6 Wafer

Flue gas damper, ring throttle damper for extreme temperatures up to +1100 °C

data sheet

Product information

The JASTA GD-6 is a robust ring throttle valve for extreme applications, high temperatures and demanding process media. Thanks to its solid construction, wide range of materials and variable sealing systems, it is ideal for high-temperature processes, flue gas lines, industrial drying and dust extraction systems as well as furnace and plant construction. The GD-6 can be individually configured and is precisely adapted to the respective operating conditions.

Special features

  • Temperature range from -100 °C to +1100 °C
  • Very high tightness (99 % to 99.98 %, depending on the version)
  • Available in all common wafer types
  • Wide range of materials for body, pulley and shaft
  • Ideal for abrasive, dust-laden or aggressive media
  • Low-maintenance and durable design
  • Mechanical or automated actuation possible
  • ISO-5211-compliant drive design
  • Optional: water-cooled versions, special geometries, combined lever systems


Advantages

  • Excellent for extreme temperature changes
