Rubber bladder valves are mainly used as a shut off valve for any bulk and solids, suspensions, sludge’s or fibrous and corrosive media, and they are also used as throttle or dosing valves. When using the bladder valve as a throttle valve it needs the control from an electro proportional pressure control valve. Otherwise if it is used as a shut off valve, normally the control takes place through a 3/2-way solenoid valve.
Soft seated control valves have a bespoke design with the variety of different end connections and a choice of 12 different qualities of rubber tubes, making these versatile valves provide an extremely broad field of applications which is almost unlimited.
Sanitary valves with a rubber pinching hose are specially designed for applications where sterility, purity, and cleanliness are of paramount importance. These valves are made to be sanitize-in-place (SIP) and clean-in-place (CIP) capable in order to prevent contamination by bacteria and any other foreign element. Common features of sanitary valves include a polished contact surface, free of crevices and dead spots, and easy cleaning. They are mostly used in chemical, medical, pharmaceutical, biotechnical, food, and dairy applications.
Water shut off valves can prove to be essential for a safe and precise functioning of your industry, like a water sewerage plant or a water recycling or treatment facility. Why? Let us tell you.
An air operated bladder valve can be used in endless different industries and types of applications successfully. Below is just a taster of examples where a bladder valve can be used…
Hose valves with a rubber pinching tube inside the housing to stop or control the flow of media is often used in a vast range of industries and applications all over the world. This page will discuss some examples of hose valve applications, their benefits, and how they perform.
The rubber membrane liners of the air operated pinch valves are usually press-fitted and centered into the housing ends by the socket end covers or flange.
A rubber membrane may also be known or nicknamed as a Hose, Bladder, Membrane, Seal, Seat, Tube, or Sleeve.
Here is a comprehensive explanation of how soft seated valves work, and how their exceptional design helps them to stop and allow the flow of fluids in an efficient manner.
Shut off valves can be described in a number of different ways, for instance the way they close – either by a metal gate, a rubber hose pinching, a ball turning, or a swiveling disc.
All types of shut off valves intend to do the same job, which is to close off the flow of a product whether it be gravity fed or pushed along using compressed air.
But which valve type is most suitable for the application being used?
One of the most widely used types of air flow valves is an air operated pinch valve. These valves are known for being highly reliable and cost effective when it comes to controlling the flow of solids, fluids, and slurries. Pinch air flow valves are the best choice for applications involving abrasive and other challenging materials.
