Throttle valve and exhaust flap systems for naval use
The IMO (International Maritime Organization) has set itself the goal of ensuring the safety of maritime travel and protecting the seas. The IMO standards were determined in order to ensure nitrogen oxide and sulphur oxide emissions (NOx, SOx) from ships’ engines are reduced. In 2014 Tier III controls were adopted, which require an 80 % reduction in NOx emissions compared with Tier I values (17.0 g/kWh) from 2016. Throttle valves and exhaust flaps from Klubert + Schmidt contribute to meeting and in the best case exceeding these strict IMO emissions standards for ships’ engines.

- Lower maintenance costs
- Lower pressure drop through the valve
- Low internal and external leakage
