R-Series Vacuum Gate Valve
Model: GVRA
R-Series Vacuum Gate Valve
Model: GVRA

Overview
Overview
The GVRA Gate Valve is optimized for isolation of roughing pumps and roughing lines in both semiconductor and general vacuum applications. The R Series is available with a range of options, including pneumatic and manual actuator and lock out tag out capability. The R Series employs an elastomer shaft seal for the actuator seal, which enables high performance in a cost effective, high value package for roughing vacuum applications. The stainless steel version of the R Series Gate valve is available in DN80, DN100, and DN160 sizes.
