Press shut-off valves

Press shut-off valves in this category are designed for concealed installation in heating and plumbing systems. They are used to isolate sections of pipe for maintenance or repairs, particularly in systems with ALPEX pipes of equal diameter. These valves operate at a nominal pressure of PN 10 and a maximum temperature of +120°C. The body is made of nickel-plated brass (CW617N), with a stainless steel sleeve and EPDM sealing material to ensure durability and leak-free performance.

Typical applications include domestic hot and cold water distribution, underfloor heating circuits, and other press-fitted systems where a compact, reliable shut-off solution is required. These valves are suitable for concealed mounting behind walls or floors, making them ideal for new builds and renovations where aesthetics and space are important.

How to choose

• Select the correct size to match the diameter of the ALPEX pipes being connected (e.g., 16 x 16, 20 x 20, 26 x 26).
• Ensure compatibility with press-fitting tools and systems using ALPEX pipe materials.
• Verify that the operating temperature and pressure (PN 10, T = +120°C) meet the system requirements.
• Confirm the material composition (nickel-plated brass body, stainless steel sleeve, EPDM seal) is suitable for the intended application.
