CYLINDER VALVES

The GCE Group has a long tradition in designing and manufacturing cylinder valves for industrial and medical applications since its origins in the 1980s.GCE Valves are used with a variety of technical gases worldwide in many different environments.

The valves are now produced in a lean manufacturing facility, recently improved by an investment in the latest technology forging machine and upgraded production line, providing improved lead times and production batch flexibility.

All the GCE valves have components sourced from Quality Assured suppliers and the manufacturing process for each production batch is strictly monitored by the production team using ISO 9001 Quality Assurance procedures.

The GCE Valve business also provides technical support to all its customers using its worldwide sales and technical teams.

NEW GENERATION

After many years of experience and feedback from its worldwide customers, GCE has now developed its new generation of industrial valves suitable for the global market.

The new generation valve design will provide its customers with an unrivalled,
15 Year Life, Operational Ease of Use, Global Durability and ISO 9001 Quality Assurance.

ACCESSORIES

Note: For variants equipped with residual pressure valve it is recommended to use GCE filling adapters.

GCE VALVES WITH RESIDUAL PRESSURE DEVICE (RPD)

The Cylinder Protection HERO

GCE valves fitted with RPD protect your cylinder from ingress of moisture, particles and other impurities at the end of customer use, by retaining a residual amount of internal pressure inside the cylinder to prevent contamination from outside.
