The advantages of multi-port valve blocks are being utilised mainly in process equipment for cleaning, layering, etching, filling etc. as well as in the accompanying chemicals supply systems and in plant for the treatment and distribution of ultra pure water.

Combining functions in the smallest of spaces offers several advantages: the hold-up volumes of media in the system are measurably minimized, the flow optimized, the draining improved. This enhances the performance of the entire system and reduces media consumption. Another advantage of blocks is that they provide junction points within plant. This allows easier cleaning and servicing. GEMÜ multi-port valve blocks are tried and tested leak-proof units.

A prerequisite for customised block design is a high level of transparency of the requirements and exact planning. Errors in the planning of production plant could result in high costs. Therefore, GEMÜ co-operates closely with customers in the development of multi-port valve solutions for industrial plant. GEMÜ's engineers develop ideas and initial design drafts as early as during the project stage. These are then implemented constructively and manufactured in a highly efficient GEMÜ production process.

GEMÜ - System solutions for complex applications and processes.

Advantages:  

• Manifolds are a space-saving design solution
• Ideally suited for corrosive media. PTFE, PVDF, PP bodies
• Integration of display, measurement and control devices and sensors possible
• Safe due to reduction of joints
• Cost effective and space-saving due to reduction of piping and fittings (reduced piping volume)
