Description
TAV 50 automatic valves maximize the efficiency of your high vacuum system. Because the valves can be opened and closed automatically, the vacuum is always concentrated on the connections, drawoff points, or machines currently in operation, increasing suction power, reducing operating costs, and reducing the size of the vacuum unit.
Description of ATEX versions
Depending on the variant and area of application, many of the TAV 50 valves are marked in accordance with the ATEX Directive with the EX symbol and an equipment category. All TAV 50 variants with the EX symbol are category 3D equipment in accordance with Directive 2014/34/EC. This means that these variants can be placed in zone 22 in accordance with Directive 1999/92/EC. The manually operated TAV 50 MA is suitable for installation in a classified area (zone 22), even though it is not marked with the EX symbol. Manually operated equipment is not covered by Directive 2014/34/EC (ATEX), so this valve is not marked with the EX symbol. Other valves without the EX symbol (W, G, and AC/DC valves) are not ATEX suitable and therefore should not be installed within a classified area. See the part number table below, where EX is included in the name, to see which ones are suitable for a classified area. Symbol EX.
