Slam Shut Valve

SSX 176 Compact High-Pressure Slam Shut Valve

The SSX 176 is a compact safety device which quickly intercepts gas flow when pressure reaches preset limits or via manual/remote command. Designed for high-pressure transmission systems and medium-pressure gas distribution networks, it handles natural gas and filtered non-corrosive gases. With a design pressure up to 102 bar and a wide temperature range from -20°C to +60°C, the SSX 176 provides reliable safety protection in a compact footprint.

Frequently asked questions

What is the SSX 176 slam shut valve?

The SSX 176 is a compact slam shut valve for high pressure transmission systems and medium pressure distribution networks, including city gates and district stations. It is rated to 102 bar and comes in DN 25 to DN 150 (1 to 6 inch) with ANSI 150, 300, 600 or PN 16 flanges. The body is ASTM A350 LF2 steel.

What set ranges does the SSX 176 cover, and when should I pick another model?

The OPSO can be set from 2 to 90 barg and the UPSO from 0.05 to 90 barg, with accuracy class up to AG 2.5. Limit switch and remote tripping are optional. For sizes above 6 inch at the same pressure, use the SBC 782 (up to 10 inch) or the HBC 975 (4 to 12 inch).
