Electric ball valve PROGEF PP-H type 180 24V

  Datasheet (PDF)

The Georg Fischer PROGEF Standard ball valve type 180 24V provides automated flow control across industrial chemical processing and water treatment piping systems. Engineered from high-grade isotactic polypropylene homopolymer (PP-H), this electrically actuated valve is equipped with SDR11 butt fusion spigots compatible with standard butt welding and infrared fusion methods. Rated for a nominal pressure of 10 bar (PN10) at 20 degrees Celsius, the assembly combines chemical resistance against non-oxidizing acids, alkalis, and salts with dependable quarter-turn automation.

The internal valve mechanism utilizes low-friction PTFE seats backed by elastomeric cushions in EPDM or FKM, achieving bidirectional bubble-tight shutoff in accordance with EN 12266 and ISO 9393-2 leak rate A requirements. A blow-out proof safety stem incorporates a predetermined shear point positioned outside the primary seal, preventing media escape during over-torque incidents. Threaded stainless steel inserts at the base of the body facilitate secure bracket fastening without transmitting structural loads to the pipeline.

Actuation is handled by an integrated 24V electric actuator protected by a flame-retardant glass-fibre reinforced polypropylene (PP-GF) housing. The unit features an internal anti-condensation heating element, optical position indicator, and factory-wired limit switches for open, closed, and intermediate status feedback. In the event of power failure or commissioning adjustments, an integrated emergency manual override allows quick manual positioning.

Covering metric diameters from d20 to d110 mm (DN15 to DN100), the PROGEF type 180 is ideal for automated chemical distribution, effluent treatment, and cooling circuits. As an authorised Georg Fischer distributor, BigWeld supplies certified thermoplastic piping systems and technical guidance across Europe.
