Autoclave hardening is an important step in the production of sand-lime bricks and aerated concrete. This hydrothermal hardening process takes place in the autoclaves under steam pressure in a saturated steam atmosphere at temperatures up to +200°C.

Almost any valve that is necessary to complete this step successfully can be supplied by ARI, including all components for the

• Boiler (steam generation and feed water treatment)
• Automatic steam autoclave control system
• Condensate system
• Heat recovery system

In particular, the following ARI products are found:

• STEVI electric and pneumatic control valves
• Electric and pneumatic stop valves
• Globe valves (STOBU gland seal valves and FABA bellows valves)CONA steam traps
• ZETRIX metal sealed butterfly valves
• Blow-down valves
• SAFE safety valves
• Strainers
