Defense, civil & military nuclear – GVO

Product: High-performance valves and fluid shut-off devices for military and nuclear environments

Issue: Ensuring the sectioning and regulation of fluids in extremely constrained environments: high pressures, shocks, seawater immersion, high military and nuclear requirements, while ensuring the safety of facilities and personnel.

The solution: Guichon Valves Origin relies on recognized expertise in circuits and installation constraints to develop and manufacture high pressure and shock resistant valves, made from noble materials compatible with seawater.
These solutions have been deployed on different ships following their evolution through the eras.
For the nuclear sector, Guichon Valves Origin has designed adjustment valves for fission products, non-retaining shut-off valves to limit the risks of contamination, as well as rinsing and decontamination taps to avoid any human intervention in sensitive areas.

The market: Naval defence + Various civil nuclear installations (secondary and tertiary circuits).
