The invention relates to a valve (1), comprising a valve housing (4) and a closing body (3) arranged in the valve housing (4) in such a way that the closing body can be moved longitudinally, wherein at least one inlet channel (5) and at least one outlet channel (6) are arranged in the valve housing (4). The closing body (3) interacts with a valve seat (8) formed on the valve housing (4) by means of the longitudinal motion of the closing body and thereby opens and closes at least one hydraulic connection between the at least one inlet channel (5) and the at least one outlet channel (6). The closing body (3) can be driven by means of a metal-bellows/piston unit (2), wherein the metal-bellows/piston unit (2) has a variable-length metal bellows (20) and a variable-volume working chamber (23) and wherein the metal bellows (20) bounds the working chamber (23) in a sealing manner.
A valve (1) comprising a valve housing (4) and a closing body (3) arranged in a longitudinally moveable manner in the valve housing (4), wherein at least one inlet channel (5) and at least one outlet channel (6) are arranged in the valve housing (4), wherein the closing body (3) interacts by longitudinal movement with a valve seat (8) formed in the valve housing (4) and thereby opens and closes at least one hydraulic connection between the at least one inlet channel (5) and the at least one outlet channel (6), characterized in that the closing body (3) is drivable by a metal-bellows/cylinder unit (2), wherein the metal-bellows/cylinder unit (2) has a length-variable metal bellows (20), wherein the metal bellows (20) bounds a volume-variable working chamber (23) in a sealing manner, wherein the closing body (3) comprises a first closing cylinder (3a) and a second closing cylinder (3b), wherein the first closing cylinder (3a) interacts with the valve seat (8), and wherein the second closing cylinder (3b) interacts with a further valve seat (8b) formed in the valve housing (4).
