Fat chamber upper part

The grease chamber is a grease-filled space that encloses the spindle on an upper part of a valve . The grease it contains protects the individual parts from corrosion , wear and limescale . The fixed chamber is sealed against the movable spindle with O-rings. A grease chamber ensures that valves can be operated permanently and also prevents the medium controlled by the valve from escaping along the spindle.
