GSR Ventiltechnik GmbH & Co. KG has developed a new valve series for the hydrogen sector. The direct-pressure controlled valves are characterized by a long service life, which is achieved by the unique design of the stem seal. It enables 35% more switching cycles than comparable competitive products.
This green hydrogen is produced by splitting water (H2O) into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) using electrolysers and renewable electricity. The new externally controlled valves from GSR control the processes surrounding electrolysis.
A version for use in both the hydrogen and oxygen processes will soon be available. The body materials have been specially qualified for use with H2 or O2. The hydrogen version has reliable, tested sealing elements, while these are even BAM-certified for the oxygen version.
