Sealed panel mounting electric pinch valves allow quick tubing changes and include a manual override feature for easy tubing loading
Designed for use with disposable tube sets, Acro's model 955 and 958 panel mounting solenoid pinch valves include a manual override feature for easy tubing loading Valves are virtually maintenance-free and with Acro's internal Splash Seal and panel mounting seal, can be cleaned without disassembly
Suitable for vacuum and pressure services, valves can accommodate flexible tubing sizes to 3/8" (9.5mm) OD.
Options include analogue or digital position feedback, tube detection, noise suppression, and 'pulse and hold' control for maximising valve performance.
Critical applications include sterile fluid handling (ie, blood/plasma) and high viscosity dispensing with the valves frequently being used in conjunction with peristaltic pumps to handle the on/off and emergency stop functions.
