The optimal design of the flow channels within the diverter ball valve enable particularly high flow rates. This significantly reduces flow pressure losses to the safety valves and safe operation remains ensured.The use of 1.4404 and 1.4408 high-alloy stainless steels enables high resistance against internal and external influences. For the use with gases that are in contact with food an FDA -compliant sealing material has been used. Thanks to the oil- and grease-free manufacturing process, the diverter ball valve are suitable for use in systems using oxygen. With the ergonomically shaped handle and the separate testing connections, the diverter ball valve is optimally prepared for the maintenance of the safety valves.
