Safe and reliable: The two valve ranges TxV and WxV from WEKA AG have been tested by Exida and classified as SIL (Safety Integrity Level) 3-capable.
With TxV and WxV, WEKA now offers two SIL 3 certified valve ranges. Both valve ranges are used in the liquefaction, distribution and filling of hydrogen. The bellows valves TxV for use at the lowest temperatures, the bellows valves WxV for use at normal temperatures. Both WEKA ranges meet the requirements for functional safety based on IEC 61508 up to a SIL 3 and thus ensure maximum operational safety.
SIL 3 is one of the highest safety ratings for functional safety according to the IEC 61508 standard. IEC 61508 is an application-independent basic standard and describes the requirements for components and systems for safety functions. The certification for functional safety was carried out by the independent testing body Exida Certification SA.
Detailed information on both the newly SIL 3-certified bellows valves is available from our experts in a personal conversation.
