GEMÜ B24

The GEMÜ B24 3-piece metal 2/2-way manual ball valve provides hygienic flow isolation for pharmaceutical and biotechnology process applications. The GEMÜ B24 accommodates nominal sizes from DN 8 to DN 100, regulates operating pressures up to 63 bar, and withstands extreme media temperatures ranging from -10°C to 220°C. Key Performance Capabilities: High Purity Media Integrity: The GEMÜ B24 integrates a 1.4435 stainless steel alloy body featuring a checked delta ferrite content below 3%, preventing media contamination and lowering long term maintenance costs in critical water treatment and sterile steam lines. Secure Mechanical Actuation: The GEMÜ B24 integrates a plastic-sleeved hand lever featuring a built in locking device, securing manual flow regulation to prevent accidental operation and eliminate unplanned process downtime during pipeline interventions. Zero Dead-Leg Sealing: The GEMÜ B24 features an optionally cavity-filled PTFE seat seal mechanism, minimising internal dead spaces to prevent bacterial accumulation and secure complete system decontamination during stringent CIP/SIP sterilisation cycles. Safety & Compliance: Explosive Environment Security: The GEMÜ B24 integrates an antistatic device and holds ATEX conformity, preventing electrostatic ignition risks to guarantee facility safety within volatile industrial zones. Pharmaceutical & Food Grade Compliance: The GEMÜ B24 achieves FDA, USP Class VI, and Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011 conformities, ensuring plant engineers can standardise one manual sanitary valve across highly regulated food processing and biotechnology networks. Note: The maximum operational media temperature and pressure ranges depend strictly on the specific ball valve configuration and selected connection standard for the GEMÜ B24.
