The 16.003.225 pinch valve series is normally open in operation and is designed for flexible tubes up to an outer diameter of 5,2 mm and a shore hardness of 50 - 60. The flow of the medium is controlled by pinching the inserted tube. This design avoids using the traditional valve seat and membrane which can cause turbulence in the fluid flow and create dead areas in the valve housing where medium or dirt can collect. The valve is particularly suitable for applications where a high level of hygiene is required. The resistance against chemicals depends on the selected material of the tube.
APPLICATIONS
dosage systems
laboratory analysis
Medical equipment
Vending machines
CHARACTERISTICS
medium completely separated from valve parts
chemical resistance depends on the material of the tube selected
tube can easily be changed
no dead areas as in usual valve body
flow in either direction
coil can be fixed in any position through 360°
minimum 1 million cycles (dry, without medium)
