Pneumatic Pinch Valve

ALIS Valves offers Pneumatic Pinch Valves for industrial applications requiring reliable flow control and shut-off of abrasive, corrosive and solid-laden fluids. These valves use compressed air to operate a flexible sleeve, which is compressed to restrict or stop the flow and released to allow fluid to pass. Since the process media primarily contacts the internal sleeve, the valve body and operating mechanism remain isolated from direct exposure to the fluid. This design helps reduce wear on internal components and supports effective handling of challenging media in compatible industrial systems.

Pneumatic Pinch Valves are suitable for applications in mining, mineral processing, wastewater treatment plants, chemical processing facilities, pulp and paper industries and slurry transportation systems. They can handle compatible slurries, suspensions, powders and fluids containing suspended solids, depending on the sleeve material and operating conditions. Important selection factors include process media, particle size, operating pressure, temperature, flow rate, sleeve material, valve size, compressed air supply and actuator requirements. Selecting the appropriate Pneumatic Pinch Valve helps support dependable shut-off, efficient flow regulation and reliable performance under the intended operating conditions.
