I use an american made sprinkler valve at 150 psi regularly with no problems. I'm from america so I don't know where to get one in the Neth. As far as metric threads go, you might find one in your country but in the US I have only seen valves with NPT and pvc slip sockets.

If you cant find sprinkler valve's try looking for diaphragm valve, same thing.
Each one comes with there own pressure rating usually 110-150 psi but some industrial one that are brass are as high as 1000psi.
i think they have BSP threads
