Abstract

A valve unit comprises an operating piston for closing and opening a connection between a process pressure input line and a process pressure output line, at least one control line and at least one control chamber for controlling the operating piston. The operating piston has a closing ring which in the closed state of the connection sealingly abuts a valve seat of the valve housing (or the valve housing has a closing ring which in the closed state of the connection sealingly abuts against a valve seat of the operating piston). The valve seat consists of a softer and more elastic material than a circumferential sealing edge abutting said valve seat. An annular sealing element is present which comprises the valve seat. The sealing element has the shape of a truncated cone with an outwardly widening base.
