Ventil zur dampfdichten Entkoppelung zweier miteinaner verbundener Prozesseinheiten

摘要

A valve is used for vapor-tightly disconnecting two interconnected process units. The valve comprises a continuous duct which connects two vacuum evaporators that are individually provided with an outer vapor-proof jacket, and a blocking mechanism mounted in the duct. In order to allow the two interconnected vacuum evacuators to be disconnected in a vapor-proof manner such that the functional reliability is improved, a vapor-impinged surface of the valve duct is provided with a vapor condensation-repellent zone which is connected in a thermally conducting manner to a heating apparatus that envelopes the valve.
