Many years of experience in the aerospace sector
STÖHR ARMATUREN products have many applications in the field of aerospace. We have many years of experience of fulfilling high and varied requirements such as:

• Tightness to atmosphere of mobile pressure cylinders and pressure vessels for transportation according to EU standards
• Storage and distribution of large volumes of gas to the launch pad
• Gas supply of test rigs for rocket engines
• Launcher filling with highly flammable media in a very short time
• Deep-frozen vacuum chambers for calibrating sensors and other space equipment
• Cryogenic cooling of highly sensitive measuring instruments

Products and solutions from STÖHR ARMATUREN are used in many areas of the aerospace industry. STÖHR has also developed and produced flying material, such as valves for a TEXUS mission or components for satellites.

Wide range of applications, adapted to project needs, produced to order
Our range of shut-off, regulating, non-return valves and filters can be adapted to suit the needs and specifications of your project, and manufactured to order. Our flexibility in production makes it possible to adapt deliveries to even the mostly complex plant construction.

Our clients: direct customers and end customers
Our customers are national aerospace institutes in Germany and around the world, well-known first and second tier suppliers in the aerospace industry, and numerous specialised plant construction companies.

Options for adaptation to a wide variety of operating conditions
High KVS values, high pressure ratings and large nominal sizes of up to DN300 enable large quantities of gas to be processed in a short time. With its extremely high leak tightness to the environment, bellow sealing reduces the risk of the explosion of oxygen or hydrogen in the event of a fault. Fast opening or closing times are often required to avoid overheating of the system or, in case of failure, to avoid or at least limit damages. These and other parameters are adjusted and checked according to the specifications of your project.

As well as the safety measures of the fitting by design and the high quality of workmanship, extensive final acceptance tests – often in the presence of customer representatives or external inspectors – guarantee maximum safety and reliability in use.
