VF ALUMINUM AND STAINLESS STEEL AIR PINCH VALVES

.

Aluminum and Stainless Steel Pinch Valves with ANSI or DIN Flanged Connections.

How do air operated pinch valves work? 

Supplying compressed air/fluid (minimum pressure difference 2 bar) into the casing of the air operated Pinch Valve compresses the sleeve, which is specially manufactured with high rebound elasticity. The body’s design guarantees that the sleeve can close freely to form a lip shape. This ensures that the product flow is completely sealed off tight and that the sleeve is guaranteed the longest service life at the same time. This closes the air operated Pinch Valve and completely seals off the flow of the product.

The maximum operating pressure is dependent on the nominal diameter and is around 2-6 bar. As soon as the supply of compressed air/fluid is interrupted and the air operated Pinch Valve casing is vented or drained, the specially manufactured sleeve is opened by its rebound elasticity/resilience, enabling the pressure in the medium to flow through the full passage of the air operated Pinch Valves.

The Flanged VF Series Pinch Valve – Simple and Reliable

Advantages:

• VF Pinch Valves very low maintenance with no mechanical moving parts. The sleeves do not impede product flow and come in a range of sleeve options for abrasive materials, strong acids and bases, sanitary applications and even high temperature applications.
• Featuring Rugged Flanged Connections: ANSI 150# Flange Valve, DIN Flange Valve.
• Pinch valve sleeves (liners) can be easily replaced. See step-by-step instructions

VF Pinch Valves are constructed from 2 body material options:

• Powder Coated Aluminum Industrial Valve Applications
• Electropolished Stainless Steel Sanitary and Corrosive Valve Applications
