Overview
The Siemens VGD20.403 is a high-performance double gas valve body designed for integration into gas trains within commercial and industrial burner systems. This compact unit consists of two safety shut-off valves in series, engineered to provide safety shut-off, gas pressure regulation, and air-gas ratio control when combined with Siemens SKP series electro-hydraulic actuators. Its modular design reduces the overall size and weight of gas trains by allowing a single assembly to perform multiple functions.
Features
- Modular double-valve design incorporates two safety shut-off valves into a single compact housing
- Inlet valve features a flat disc for safety shut-off while the outlet valve uses a contoured disc for precise pressure regulation
- Integrated stainless steel mesh strainer (0.9 mm) protects valve seats and downstream components from debris
- Dual stem guides ensure precise disc alignment and reliable tight shut-off
- Connection to SKP series actuators allows for slow opening and rapid closing for enhanced safety
- Includes multiple pressure test points (1/4 inch NPT) on the inlet, outlet, and between valves
- Replaceable pilot gas flange and universal mounting plate for flexible installation on either side of the valve
