Pinch Valves

Vertex Pinch Valves are ideal for shut off applications that involve abrasive or corrosive slurries, powders or granular substances. Our advanced flow control solutions meet even the most stringent customer specifications. Vertex valves offer substantial savings through improved performance, longer service lifetime and lower maintenance costs. Over Thousands of Vertex valves are currently operating in mining and metal industries, minerals processing, pulp and paper, chemical process industries, energy as well as oil and offshore industries. Numerous applications also exist in water and effluent treatment, dairy, food and beverage production, and pharmaceutical processing plants. Self-cleaning Vertex valves provide 100% tight shut-off even if solids have built up on the sleeve wall. When compressed, any crystallized particles flake off the sleeve surface and are washed downstream. The standard range is for diameters of 1” to 12”, temperatures from -10°C to 110°C, and operating pressures from vacuum to 15 kg/cm². We provide tailor-made flow control solutions precisely in accordance with the customer specifications.
Modular Design
Our modular valve design has three main components: the sleeve, the body and the actuator. The sleeve is the only part that is in contact with the process medium. The construction and materials of all three main components can be tailored to suit most process conditions. The operating principle of a Vertex valve is simple. In the open position, the valve is at full bore with no flow restrictions thus making the valve an integral part of the pipeline. During closing, two pinch bars squeeze the sleeve shut on the center-line.The different types of Pinch Valve are Manual pinch valve, Pneumatic pinch valve, Gear operated pinch valve, Open body pinch valve, Chain operated pinch valve.The company also offers Pinch Valve, Open Body, Pinch Valve, Chain Operated, Tool Trolleys & Tool Cabinets, Piston Valve
