The valve travel depends on the actuator selected.
1.8 Opening and closing forces required
The values specified in the tables apply to a seat/plug
material of modified PTFE.
With other materials, e.g. PTFE/carbon, higher closing
forces are required. Please inquire at manufacturer's.
If the maximum p is < p2, p2 is used in the tables.
observe the application limits acc. to the pressure-
temperature diagram in Section 1.4.
A mechanical travel stop is required in the area
marked.
It is provided when
p >
10bar/145 psi to
Seat-Ø 15-50 mm
p >6 bar/87 psi to
Seat-Ø 65 mm

Opening forces
The opening forces remain below the closing forces and are therefore not shown.
