Why a new Gate Valve development
end-users experiences during the previous years resulted in updated
rules and standards
for example:
improved hygienic standards
DIN DVGW W270
3 3 VAG Unternehmensprsentation
Hygienic requirements W270
In some cities in the north of Germany water works found long term
coli bacteria in the drinking water system.
They had been growing on the EPDM rubber lined wedges of Gate Valves.
These hygienic findings were appearing in newly erected water networks
and within new Gate Valves.
On the rubber lining, significant bio films of bacteria and
slime were growing upon which was also the coli bacterium
Citrobacter freundi
Evidence of the above was proven..
