China Clamping Stirrup Pinch Valve

The aluminum alloy air operated pinch valve from the VA series are designed for shut-off control applications with abrasive, corrosive, and fibrous media. The series includes pinch valves with female threaded ports, sizes ranging from 3/8 to 4 inches. The maximum operating pressure is at 6 bar (87 psi) and the maximum control pressure is 2 bar (29 psi) higher than the media pressure. These China Clamping Stirrup Pinch Valves can be equipped with either natural rubber food-safe sleeve, natural rubber abrasion resistant sleeve, or EPDM sleeve. These valves ensure an optimal shut-off, even when used with solids, such as granules, powders, pellets, chipping, sand, cement, gravel, textile fibers, carbon, fine glass fragments, and slurries (liquids that contain solids).

The main part

Valve body, casing rubber, bonnet, etc.

Working principle

When the pneumatic system is closed, the space between the casing and the body is connected to the air, and the casing is under the pressure of the liquid, making it in an outward tension state. Because there is a reinforcing cloth inside the casing to maintain pressure balance, the length and diameter of the casing will not be changed by the liquid pressure. When the medium enters the space between the sleeve and the body, the sleeve will cut off the liquid under moderate pressure.

Main Features of China clamping stirrup pinch valve

Installation and maintenance

A. We can install valves on any part of the pipeline without restricting the flow of the medium

B. The maintenance cost is very low, only need to replace the rubber of the casing according to the conditions of use.

Suitable medium

Slurry, ore slurry, abrasive, wet and dry dust, solid-liquid, granular fertilizer, etc. Especially for mineral plants, chemical plants, power plants, sewage treatment plants, etc.
