The Elektrogas VS pressure relief valves reduce temporary pressure surges in combustion systems. These devices are usually used on gas trains, industrial applications, and gas firing systems. The shutting-off of automatic valves, or regulators not closing tightly, can cause pressure spikes. By releasing extra pressure in a relief line, Elektrogas VS valves enable systems to Read More

Elektrogas VMRNA Automatic Vent Valve
VMRNA from Elektrogas is a normally-open vent valve for industrial gas manifolds. This valve is suitable for discharging excess or leakage gas into relief lines, for venting to a safe location (or atmosphere). They function by means of a reverse solenoid valve. This means without power, the valve is open. An inner spring pushes on Read More
Elektrogas VMM Double Solenoid Valve
Elektrogas VMM solenoid valves are safety devices used to stop the flow of gas in a combustion system. The VMM features two separate solenoid valves in one unit. The first valve is fast opening; when powered, the valve rapidly opens against the strength of the gas flow. When de-energized, the valve closes, pushing on a Read More
How to Wire an Elektrogas Proof of Closure Device
We’ve created a video demonstration to help users wire a DIN plug for an Elektrogas Proof of Closure device. The numbers in this blog correspond with the numbers in the video. 1. Once you’ve unscrewed the plug and removed it from the proof of closure device, step one is to remove the rubber gasket and Read More
Visiting our Italian Partners: May 2022 pt. 1
This past week, members of the Olsträd team visited Europe. We met with our Italian partners to discuss developments, study new equipment, and tour their facilities. The first stop of our trip was in Treviso, Italy, to meet with our partners at Delta Elektrogas. Our travel began with some delays, lost luggage, and long waits Read More
Elektrogas Safety Shut-off Valve FAQs
Elektrogas safety shut-off valves (SSOVs) are some of the most popular items we carry, and customers often have many questions about them. We thought it would be helpful to create a list of commonly asked questions about these valves. Approvals Q: Are the VMR, VML, and VMM valve models “worldwide” valves? A: Elektrogas SSOVs are Read More
Elektrogas Proof of Closure FAQs
One item customers regularly ask about is the Elektrogas proof of closure (POC) device. We thought it would be beneficial to put together a list of some of the most commonly asked questions from customers. Q: Another manufacturer’s literature states that their POC device has a lifespan of 200K cycles. Does Elektrogas have the same Read More
Elektrogas NV Needle Valve
We’re pleased to announce the release of the Elektrogas NV needle valve for the North American market! The NV is useful for fine adjustment of air flow and gas flow in industrial combustion processes. Features and Function The NV valve bodies are made of aluminum, with a wide range of thread connections from 3/8″NPT to Read More
90 PSI Safety Shut-Off Valves with Proof of Closure
Elektrogas offers a high pressure, 90 PSI, version of their safety shut-off solenoid valves (SSOVs) with proof of closure. The valve body is made with a solid aluminum alloy die cast with a wide range of NPT thread and ANSI connections. The VMx series are normally closed SSOVs. When no power is present, the spring, Read More
FAQ: How Do Solenoid Valves Work?
The Operation of a VMR Solenoid Valve You use them to safely shut-off the gas in your combustion system, but how do solenoid valves work? We’ve put together a video to demonstrate. We hope you enjoy it! The Elektrogas VMR is a fast-opening, fast-closing safety shut-off solenoid valve. This model has proof of closure. Elektrogas Read More
