Gate valve GLO Fig. 215 DN250 PN16, gray cast iron EN-GJL-250, design: 42, swing-check type, loose disc without spring, stem – brass, disc seat ring – bronze 215A250C42

Gate Valve in Cast Iron – Reliable Shut-off for Your System

This gate valve GLO, figure 215, is a robust solution for precise flow shut-off in water, steam, and industrial systems. Manufactured from durable gray cast iron EN-GJL-250, it ensures long-term, trouble-free operation even under demanding conditions. Its design, based on a spring-free loose gate mechanism, guarantees tight sealing and minimizes the risk of mechanical damage.

This valve is particularly valued for its versatility — it performs excellently in both hot and cold water systems, as well as in steam and industrial process applications. Compliance with the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC and CE marking (for DN 32) ensures its safety and conformity with applicable standards.

Construction and Materials – The Key to Durability

The valve features a thoughtfully engineered design using high-quality materials:

• Body: Gray cast iron EN-GJL-250 — provides mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.
• Stem: Brass — ensures smooth operation and corrosion resistance.
• Gate and Seat Ring: Bronze — ensures excellent sealing and minimizes friction.

The combination of these materials translates into extended valve lifespan and low operating costs. The valve flanges are machined in accordance with EN 1092-2 for body material group A, facilitating installation and ensuring compatibility with existing systems. The face-to-face dimension complies with EN 558-1 Series 1.

Applications and Compatibility

This valve is suitable for a wide range of installations:

• Hot, cold, and cooling water systems
• Steam systems
• Industrial processes
• District heating
• Power generation

Additionally, the valve’s technical data is preloaded into popular engineering software libraries (Instal-therm, Instal-san, Audytor C.O. 3.8, Audytor H2O 1.5), significantly simplifying design and selection for your specific needs. The valve is designed for operation at a nominal pressure of PN 16 and nominal diameter DN 250. It meets Class A leakage rating per EN 12266-1, confirming its high manufacturing quality and reliable performance.
