Rico has launched the next generation of the proven Ventex explosion protection valve. The valve now features a flow velocity of at least 30 m/s in all nominal sizes, thus ensuring an even higher level of process reliability and flexibility. The valve can be placed directly upstream or downstream of pipe bends in the pipeline; double pipe bends or combinations of pipe bends in different directions are also no problem. For processes involving metallic dusts, the Ventex is also certified in nominal size DN 400. Moreover, the new generation also achieves up to 20 % better values in terms of pressure drop. In addition, Rico has responded to customer suggestions: the DN 250 nominal size, which previously was not offered yet, has been added to the Ventex portfolio and is now available as standard.
