The open body construction is light and it is very easy to access for service. 

The available valve diameters begin with 80 mm. The standard body material is mild steel, but AISI316 bodies can also be delivered upon request. 

The open body offers the advantage of being able to tolerate misalignment and vibration.

Technical specifications

Size range: 15~2000mm, ½~84in

Pressure range: 1-10MPa, 1:2 safety factor, which means bursting pressure is 2 times higher than the operating pressure.

Material of valve body

DN15~200 (carbon steel, ductile iron, aluminum alloy, stainless steel-casting process)

DN250~2000 (45#steel, stainless steel welding technology )

Material of valve sleeve: NR, EPDM, CR(chloroprene rubber), NBR, butyl rubber, FPM, Hypalon rubber.

Working status of pinch valve

Fully-open: the full-bore elastic valve sleeve of pinch valve without any gaps & dead spots.

Center closed: closed on the center line of the valve body, which avoids turbulence and abrasion, as a result, the valve sleeve becomes a smooth and enclosed venturi with self-cleaning during every operation.

Fully-closed: it ensures the pinch valve is with no leakage of two ways when shut off, and the safe design of inner valve sleeve requires no maintenance of sealing elements.
