Safety valves
Safety valves play a crucial role in pneumatic systems, ensuring safety and reliability in industrial contexts. Developed to comply with strict safety regulations, these valves offer advanced functions to protect operators.
Compliance with Regulations
A key aspect of safety valves is their compliance with fundamental regulations, such as the Machinery Directive and relevant ISO standards. The European Union Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC) specifies essential health and safety requirements for the design and construction of machinery intended for the European market. For safety valves, this directive requires adherence to certain standards to ensure high protection levels for both operators and machinery. These valves must undergo conformity assessment and bear the CE marking before entering the market.
Functions, Characteristics, and Applications of Safety Valves
Safety valves are responsible for interrupting and venting air in pneumatic systems. These valves are designed to respond quickly in cases of emergency command activation, ensuring the fast and safe release of air. Some safety valves, like the MX Safemax series, can integrate a soft-start function, maximising system efficiency and safety. Safety valves are used in a wide range of industrial contexts, where protecting personnel from potential hazards caused by malfunctions or anomalies is necessary. They are particularly useful in critical safety areas where emergency stops may be required suddenly.
Focus: MX Safemax Safety Valves
Series MX Safemax safety valves offer a combination of compact size, progressive start-up functionality, and a favourable price-to-performance ratio. They are ideal for systems requiring protection up to Category 4 and Performance Level E. These valves are versatile and can be mounted as standalone units or as components in a modular air preparation system, offering flexibility for both OEMs and end-users.
