Abstract
A piston compressor valve including a valve seat having a plurality of through openings including a closing element which is rotatable about an axis of rotation (D) for opening and closing the through openings and having an actuating drive for rotating the closing element, wherein the valve seat has an end face into which the through openings lead, wherein the closing element is movably connected to the actuating drive in the running direction of the axis of rotation (D), such that the closing element is both rotatable about the axis of rotation (D) and also movable in the running direction of the axis of rotation (D) relative to the end face, and having a sensor for detecting a condition variable (E) of the piston compressor valve, and having a control device which activates the actuating drive as a function of the condition variable (E).
