Pinch Valve
Pinch valves stop or regulate flow by compressing an elastomeric sleeve. The medium travels through the sleeve while the operating mechanism acts outside it.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
A pinch valve is a full bore or fully ported type of control valve which uses a pinching effect to obstruct fluid flow. There are a few types of pinch valves based upon application.
Sleeve material, reinforcement and deformation determine chemical compatibility and wear behaviour. Operating pressure must be considered with the available closing force or pressure. An unobstructed bore does not establish resistance to every abrasive or chemical medium.
What turns activity into demand
A pinch valve concentrates wetted exposure in a replaceable component. Medium characteristics and closure cycles determine its service economics. Distinguish valve assemblies from sleeve replacements and pneumatic controls. The wetted sleeve is a separate recurring product.
The commercial boundary
Distinguish valve assemblies from sleeve replacements and pneumatic controls. The wetted sleeve is a separate recurring product.
