Olocco Srl has been manufacturing valves and components for pneumatic conveying and dosing since 1970. Olocco valves are used for discharging, dosing, and pneumatic conveying of powder and granule products of any kind, in the food, chemical, and plastic industries, on low, medium, and high-pressure lines.
Olocco’s commitment has always been characterized by constant research from design to production of valves and accessories, ensuring the creation of products at the top for technical specifications, quality, and safety. In recent years, its production department has undergone a profound renewal with the commissioning of new machining centers equipped with the most modern flexible production systems with high levels of automation. It has inaugurated a new assembly and quality control department and a new warehouse to meet the growing market, all on a total area of over 6,000m².
Since 1997, Olocco Srl has obtained the UNI EN ISO9001:2015 quality certification and has subsequently certified most of its products in accordance with the Atex Directive 2014/34/EU. In 2007, Olocco began producing rotary valves suitable for use in explosion-risk areas with structural resistance and flame-tightness up to 10 bar, called “RS/ex”. Subsequently, the “ExR” series was added, with flanges unified according to the UNI PN10 / DIN2576 standard, structural resistance up to 10 bar, and flame-tightness up to 1.7 bar with vulkollan rotor tips and up to 2.5 bar with metal tips, available in sizes from DN150 to DN300.
Olocco Srl is also able to guarantee the food compatibility of the materials with which its products are made, in compliance with the provisions of EC Regulation No. 1935/2004 concerning materials and articles intended to come into contact with food products (MOCA), and EC Regulation 2023/2006 on good manufacturing practices for materials and articles intended to come into contact with food.
Due to the growing demand for stainless steel product contact parts, the new range of UPH-SMD valves entirely made of AISI316 stainless steel has been presented, with round flanges unified according to UNI PN10 / DIN2576 standards, available in sizes from DN150 to 300 and capacities from 3 to 37 liters/revolution. These valves will also be available in a quick-disassembly version with extraction bars, fully dismountable rotor, and polished and rounded internal surfaces to meet the highest cleaning standards.
