China Food Grade Pneumatic Pinch Valve

China Food Grade Pneumatic Pinch Valves are used for material flow interception in pneumatic conveying systems, or other pipelines. In addition, they can be installed as a locking device for silo filling pipes. In the open position the internal cross section of the valve is identical with the connecting pipe diameter.

The air operated pinch valve is pneumatically operated through the air supply connection in the housing. This connection has a G 1/4 inch female thread. The pressurized air compresses the sleeve and provides a shut-off function of the valve. When closed, the sleeve forms a tight seal that will not allow the media leakage. Common industries that utilize pneumatic pinch valves for the benefit of isolating fluid from a mechanical valve including drug dispensing, laboratory equipment, wastewater, medical devices, chemical, food and beverage equipment, ceramic/glass/plastic, and solids handling.
