Pinch Valves

All purpose, pliable valves for specialized applications

Pinch valves Pinch valves by Schubert & Salzer

Many fluids cannot be controlled throught conventional valves due to high solid content, heavy viscosites or contaminants. In some cases the media is too agressive fro conventional alloys. Long service life and reliability combined with the excellent control quality of an integrated positioner, lead to an ideal control valve with minimal maintenance and low operating costs.

The Schubert & Salzer pinch valves, pneumatic or motor acuated are true alternatives for applications in many industries whether for general or sanitary functions.

The pinch valve for endless tubes offers a modern alternative to conventional pinch. The pinch valve can be used at any position on an endless tube for on/off and control operations. With no dead space, the highest sanitary demands can be met. No need for CIP/SIP concerns as the tubing can simply be exchanged after each batching operation.

Design principle of pinch valves

Schubert & Salzer pinch valves use the elasticity of high-performance polymers as a throttle. Pneumatic actuators compress the tubes fixed in the valve body or inserted endless tubes through specially designed pressure pieces. Due to the spring reset in the actuator and the operating fluids itself, the pinch valves move to the respective safety position or desired valve position.
