Description
The ABS Metric 2-Way +GF+ Pneumatically Actuated Ball Valve is a robust and highly reliable automated shut-off solution for metric ABS pipework systems. This assembly combines the Georg Fischer Type 546 Pro ABS ball valve with a Prisma pneumatic actuator, delivering fast, repeatable on/off control for industrial and process applications.
Designed for simple isolation duties, the 2-way ball valve uses a precision-machined rotating ball to provide full bore flow in the open position and tight shut-off when closed. The valve body is manufactured from ABS with PTFE ball seats and seals, offering excellent chemical resistance, smooth flow characteristics and long service life.
The Prisma pneumatic actuator features a compact, lightweight polyamide body and provides rapid quarter-turn operation through a 0–90° rotation. With ATEX and SIL3 approval, the actuator is suitable for use in hazardous or safety-critical environments. Its NAMUR interface allows straightforward integration with solenoid valves, making it ideal for automated systems requiring dependable pneumatic control.
Integrated stainless steel mounting inserts and ISO-compatible dimensions ensure easy installation and long-term flexibility, allowing the valve to be serviced or reconfigured with minimal disruption to the pipeline.
