IMI Thompson Valves
E78D, E78H series AO/AC Bellows sealed globe valve
Pneumatic bellows-sealed globe valve for high-pressure and nuclear applications.
Pneumatic actuation allows remote operation in critical environments.
Bellows-sealed design prevents leaks and ensures pressure containment.
Handles hazardous fluids under high pressure and extreme temperatures.
The IMI Thompson Valves E78AO Series is a bellows-sealed globe valve with pneumatic actuation, designed for nuclear power, aerospace, and hazardous fluid applications. Operating at up to 240 bar (3480 psi) and 300°C (572°F), it ensures positive shut-off with air-to-open and air-to-close options. A secondary gland packing enhances leak-tight performance, while the forged stainless steel body ensures durability. The E78AO Series meets ASME B&PV Section III standards and is available in threaded, butt weld, socket weld, and stub pipe connections. It is suited for high-pressure instrumentation and process control in nuclear and industrial sectors.
