This image shows the operating principle of a double acting pinch valve.
Double acting pinch valves close from two directions. The flow control valve may be operated manually using a handwheel or
automatically opened / closed using pneumatic, hydraulic or electric motor. Larox pinch valves may be fail safe open
or fail safe closed
The valves can be adjusted to provide a fully regulated flow or an integrated part of
repetitive process operation. Pinch valves use an integral sleeve which is compressed under closing, when fully closed the
valve is 100% leak proof.
Larox sleeves are available in a variety of materials to suit your application.
For applications such as adhesives or pastes, the sleeves have opening tabs fixed to the pinching mechanism. This helps open
the valve fully even when controlling sticky substances
Larox valve sleeves are a replaceable wearing part designed
for specific applications. Reference projects are available for most industries
