A detector sends a signal about the incipient explosion to a control unit that in turn activates a closing mechanism of the valve. The quick-acting slide valve is closed pneumatically. It respects so called fail safe design that puts the slide valve into safe state (close) in case that its reliable function cannot be guaranteed (e.g. by breaking its electrical supply or communication circuits, pressure decrease, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a  href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?time_continue=2&amp;v=cXRLocfIpyA\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">VIDEO &#8220;The quick-acting slide valve Gatex&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-dd688877-4346-4413-8d2f-86b5befa0def\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tektrade.ee\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/RSBP-2018-ExplosionProtection-EN-web-3.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RSBP catalogue<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":2799,"menu_order":62,"template":"","class_list":["post-2827","product","type-product","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tektrade.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2827","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tektrade.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tektrade.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.tektrade.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2827\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3252,"href":"https:\/\/www.tektrade.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2827\/revisions\/3252"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tektrade.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2799"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tektrade.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2827"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
