Rotary valves in explosion protection

Rotary valves in explosion protection

10 December 2025

Small components with a big responsibility
In dust extraction systems operating in potentially explosive atmospheres, safety is non-negotiable.

Rotary valves like the JK-EXS and B-EXS from JKF play a crucial role in keeping systems — and people — safe:

  • Certified flame and explosion barriers
  • Prevent backflow of pressure and fire into upstream equipment
  • Maintain system integrity with controlled discharge of dust and granulates

Both valves are ATEX 1D certified and built to meet the toughest industrial safety requirements.
