Pinch Valves
Therefore, pinch valves are preferably applied in medical technology, analytics, chemical process engineering as well as in food technology.
The valve manufacturer A. u. K. Müller offers a wide choice of pinch valves for different tubing diameters from 1 to 6 mm ID as 2/2-way NC or NO and 3/2-way variants. The operating pressure (max. 1 bar) and flow rate is related to the applied tubing material and thickness. The valves can be used in environmental temperatures of 50°C/122 °F maximum and media temperatures of 90 °C/194°F.
Characteristics
• Available as 2/2-way NC/NO and 3/2- way variants for different tubing diameters from 1.0 to 6.0 mm ID
• Medium completely separated from valve parts
• No dead areas as in usual valve body
• Chemical resistance depends on the material of the tube selected
• Tube can easily be changed
• Flow in either direction
• Max. media temperatures 90 °C (194 °C)
• Coil can be fixed in any position through 360°
• Minimum 1 million cycles (dry, without medium)
Applications
• Medical technology
• Laboratory equipment and analytics
• Vending machines
• Dosing system
