Kromschröder

Kromschroder is a leading manufacturer of gas combustion technology, gas fittings, and associated components for industrial, commercial, and residential applications. The company, founded in 1899 in Osnabrück, Germany, has more than 120 years of experience in developing safe and efficient combustion systems. At Verkopershulp.nl, more than 835 Kromschroder products are available.

The Kromschroder range includes gas burners for industrial and commercial heating applications, double solenoid valves for gas shutoff, pressure switches and gas pressure monitors, flame guards and UV flame detectors, gas couplings and distribution blocks, gas pressure gauges and level indicators, and automatic gas igniters. All these components comply with European gas fitting directive EN 161 and EN 13611.

Kromschroder solenoid valves, particularly the VK and VG series, have become the industry standard for safe gas shutoff in combustion installations. These valves are available as single or double shutoff (for class A, B, and C applications per EN 161), in versions for natural gas, propane, butane, and town gas, and with electrical actuation for fast opening and closing.

For reliable flame detection, Kromschroder offers the GIK series UV flame monitors and the BCU series combustion managers. These systems provide automatic monitoring of the combustion flame and shut off the gas supply upon flame failure. They comply with SIL 2 requirements for safety-critical industrial combustion applications.

At Verkopershulp.nl, you will find all Kromschroder parts and replacement components for your combustion installation. Our technical team advises you on the correct product selection for your specific burner application.

Kromschroder also offers complete systems for gas safety and combustion optimization, including the IFC series flow controllers and FRI series gas filters for cleaning gas mixtures before the combustion process. The extensive product line makes it possible to fully equip complex combustion installations with Elster-Kromschroder components, from gas shutoff and pressure regulation to flame monitoring and combustion management. All components are seamlessly coordinated for optimal safety and efficiency.

In addition to standard gas components, Kromschroder also delivers special versions for hydrogen applications, applications with biogas and aggressive gases, and ATEX-certified versions for use in potentially explosive zones. Customers in the chemical industry, waste processing, and biogas production rely on Kromschroder's robust and certified combustion technology for safe and efficient process heating. The technical support and extensive documentation of the Elster-Kromschroder service portfolio complete the offering for professional installers and end users.

History

Kromschroder was founded in 1899 in Osnabrück, Germany, by Bernhard Kromschroder. The company began as a manufacturer of gas meters and gas fittings for the emerging gas infrastructure of the early twentieth century. In the 1920s and 1930s, the range expanded to combustion equipment and gas safety devices. After World War II, Kromschroder grew strongly alongside European industrialization and supplied combustion components for industrial ovens, heating boilers, and process installations. Through the Elster-Kromschroder merger and later incorporation into the Honeywell group, Kromschroder became part of an international technology corporation while retaining its specific expertise in combustion technology. Elster Group, the parent company after the merger, was acquired by Honeywell International in 2015, which integrates the Elster-Kromschroder product line into its Industrial Process Controls division. As a result, Kromschroder benefits from global distribution and advanced R&D facilities while retaining the specialized combustion technology that makes the brand renowned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Kromschroder solenoid valves are suitable for class A double shutoff? ▾
For class A safety shutoff (two independent shutoff elements in series), the Kromschroder VK series combined double solenoid valves and JSAV/JSAVF dual shutoff sets are suitable. These comply with EN 161 class A and are used in combustion installations above 1200 kW.
How does a Kromschroder UV flame monitor work? ▾
A Kromschroder UV flame monitor detects the ultraviolet radiation emitted by a gas flame. Upon flame failure, the signal stops, after which the combustion manager immediately shuts off the gas supply. Response times are typically less than 1 second, conforming to EN 298 and SIL requirements.
Are Kromschroder combustion components suitable for hydrogen mixtures? ▾
Yes, an increasing portion of the Kromschroder range is certified for use with natural gas/hydrogen mixtures (H2 ready) up to 20 percent hydrogen (volume percent). For higher hydrogen concentrations, specific product variants are available. Contact us for the current H2 compatibility status of your desired product.
Which Kromschroder gas pressure monitors are available at Verkopershulp.nl? ▾
We carry the Kromschroder GW series membrane pressure monitors and the LS series integrated gas/air pressure monitors. These are available for measuring ranges from 0.5 mbar to 600 mbar and are suitable for natural gas, LPG, and other gases. They feature SPDT contacts for direct connection to combustion management systems.
How quickly are Kromschroder products delivered through Verkopershulp.nl? ▾
Common Kromschroder combustion components in stock are shipped the same business day. Delivery in the Netherlands is typically within 1-2 business days. Less common models are delivered within 5-10 business days through Elster-Kromschroder.
Do Kromschroder products comply with the European Gas Appliances Regulation? ▾
Yes, all Kromschroder gas components comply with the European Gas Appliances Regulation (GAR 2016/426/EU) and the associated EN standards such as EN 161, EN 13611, and EN 298. All products carry CE marking and are supplied with declarations of conformity.
Can Verkopershulp.nl help select a complete Kromschroder burner management set? ▾
Yes, our technical team helps you compose a complete burner safety system consisting of solenoid valve, pressure monitor, flame guard, and combustion manager. Give us your burner power, gas type, and safety class, and we will put together the right component combination for you.
Are Kromschroder combustion managers compatible with modern BAS and SCADA systems? ▾
Yes, the newer Kromschroder BCU series combustion managers are equipped with digital communication interfaces such as Modbus RTU and CANopen for integration into building automation systems and SCADA. Analog and digital signal connections are standard on all common PLC platforms.
