The Red Valve Series 75 1″ Pinch Valve with a Cast Iron (CI) body is designed for regulating and controlling the flow of liquids or gases in pipelines. Here are the key features and details about this type of valve:
Key Features:
- Pinch Valve Design: Pinch valves are used to regulate the flow by pinching the flexible sleeve inside the valve. The valve body remains stationary, and only the sleeve moves to restrict or stop the flow.
- 1″ Size: This is the nominal size, meaning it is typically designed to fit a 1-inch pipe.
- Cast Iron Body: The valve body is made of durable cast iron, which provides strength and resistance to wear, making it suitable for handling tough environments, such as in industrial applications or handling abrasive fluids.
- Sleeve Material: The sleeve is typically made of a high-quality elastomer material (such as rubber) that can withstand wear, corrosion, and abrasive materials, ensuring the valve lasts longer and provides leak-proof sealing.
- Self-Cleaning: Due to its pinch valve design, debris in the flow often gets flushed out, preventing blockages that could otherwise affect the valve performance.
- Versatility: It’s used in various industries like water treatment, food processing, chemical manufacturing, and mining for flow control.
- Leak-Proof Performance: The valve offers a tight seal, minimizing leakage during operation.
- Compact and Efficient: It provides effective flow control while being compact, making it easy to install and maintain in tight spaces.
Applications:
- Slurry handling: Suitable for industries that deal with slurry, cement, or other viscous liquids.
- Water Treatment: Often used in water and wastewater systems for controlling flow.
- Pneumatic or Hydraulic Systems: Pinch valves are common in these systems, especially when handling harsh media.
