Pneumatic diaphragm valve DIASTAR Sixteen
+GF+ strongest one.
Because this type series has the highest closing forces, it is implemented wherever high line pressure, up to 10 bar on both sides, needs to be controlled. The DIASTAR 025 with the integrated accessory interface is also your valve of choice if you place a great deal of importance on easy system integration. Available in the modes of operation: FC, FO and DA.
Fail-safe-to-close (FC mode)
In the non-operative state, the valve is closed with spring force. When the actuator is pressurised with the control medium (bottom connection), the valve opens. When the control medium escapes, the valve is closed via spring force.
Fail-safe-to-open (FO mode)
In the non-operative state, the valve is open with spring force. When the actuator is pressurised with the control medium (top connection), the valve closes. When the control medium escapes, the valve is opened via spring force.
Double acting (DA mode)
The valve has no defined basic position. The valve is opened and closed by applying control pressure to the corresponding connection (top connection for closing, bottom connection for opening).

The new pneumatic Diaphragm Valves of GF Piping Systems represent a revolution in terms of safety, efficiency and simplicity.
Like the hand valves the new DIASTAR also has a central union nut. This connection is non-corrosive, temperature stable and high pressure rating up to 16 bar.
Because of the doubled flow rate the energy expenditure can be reduced considerably. At the same time the flow characteristic is very linear and thus ideally suited for control applications.
Features like rotatable air connections and pre-tensioned spring-kits facilitate installation and maintenance enormously. The accessory interface allows simple integration into facility automation.
