The Pyroban SVH Valve is a series of air inlet shut-off valves – an integral safety component for diesel engines. Its primary use is to shut off the air supply to an engine to prevent a potential explosion.
By using Pyroban in the product design process, manufacturers can reduce time to market for a product, reduce the overall cost of certification and concentrate on the quality and production of the product.
The SVH Valve has a range of actuation options which means that it can be operated electrically, pneumatically or hydraulically, making it suitable for a wide variety of applications. It is available in 3” and 5” sizes which can be purchased with an integrated flame arrestor.
Pyroban SVH valves are available with full ATEX certification making them safe for use in Zone 1, Zone 2 and Zones 21/22 areas for both gas and dust applications.
