10 years of work experience of the NPO “GKMP” LLC with clients from different industries enabled us to come up with a product line of specialized vacuum shut-offs. Cutting-edge technologies and reliable production capacities ensure the high quality. Our vast experience in development and engineering of unique vacuum hardware ensures technical characteristics unmatched by our competitors.

The main components related to the two types of those produced by the NPO “GKMP” LLC are shown on the Picture 1 as an example of a shut-off with a rubber seal.

The housing is a leakproof vacuum chamber attached by the flanges to the vacuum system. Unlike vacuum valves, the gate valve poppet moves perpendicularly to the gas flow thus ensuring its maximum conductivity when opened. This is the reason why vacuum shut-offs are the best to equip the hardware operating in molecular gas mode, like turbomolecular, ion, getter and cryogenic pumps.

Vacuum shut-offs can be operated manually, pneumatically or electromechanically. Shut-offs can be manufactured with bellows or elastomer rod seal.

The NPO “GKMP” LLC manufactures straight shut-offs with pneumatic drive designed to close a vacuum system.

Application: vacuum systems for electronic components production, electric devices, energy, tool construction, machine construction and in scientific research.

Shut-offs are equipped with pneumatic drive. Operating medium – air or gases that do not induce corrosion. Shut-offs are equipped with the flanges of different dimensions with the standard fitting ISO-K/ISO-F. Shut-offs manufactured correspond to the NF regulation category 4 per GOST 15150.

The general appearance of shut-offs is given on Pictures 2 and 3*.
