Cryogenic valves (FEMA)
Description

FEMA, integrated within Chart Industries, is an Italian brand with a consolidated track record in safety, control and cryogenic service valves for special applications. Its offering combines specialisation, proprietary manufacturing and the ability to adapt to very low temperature, pressure and service conditions, positioning it strongly in industrial gases, LNG and hydrogen. The company concentrates its value on applications where shutoff reliability, functional repeatability and material compatibility are decisive factors for sustaining safety and operational continuity.

In cryogenic valves, FEMA offers a range that includes safety valves, check valves and pneumatic control and on/off valves prepared for very low temperatures and for integration into storage, regulation and distribution systems for liquefied gases. The correct choice of materials, shutoff type, pressure range and thermal conditions is key to ensuring reliable behaviour throughout the equipment’s service life.

These items of equipment demand materials and design details capable of maintaining functionality, safety and repeatability under extreme thermal contraction, vaporisation and transient operating regimes. In valves for severe service, the choice of material, obturator type and internal design conditions both shutoff integrity and equipment stability against corrosion, temperature or turbulence.

Its market focus is concentrated in industrial gases, LNG, hydrogen, chemical, food, medicine and projects with integrated cryogenic components. Overall, FEMA provides a very valuable specialisation when the valve must operate safely, repeatably and reliably in real cryogenic conditions.
