Sigma

Closed body pinch valve

The Sigma valve is a pinch valve designed for on/off
or throttling control of abrasives and corrosives in
suspension. The full flow, full I.D. design permits flow
through the valve in either direction without any
obstructions.
Only the interchangeable elastomer sleeve contacts the
process fluid. Other internal parts are isolated from
contamination.

Sizes : From 1" up to 20"

Conection : ANSI B16.5 class 150 flanges as standard.

Actuator availables : Manual, Bevel gear, Pneumatic,

Electric, Hydraulic.

Maximum working pressure : 150 psi cwp as standard,

other option under request.

Materials

Body : Cast iron as standard. Aluminum under

request.

Sleeve : Natural rubber, Neoprene, Hypalon,

Butyl, EPDM, etc.

Characteristics Benefits

* Reinforced elastomer sleeve * High abrasion resistance

* Straight-through sleeve * Low turbulence, low friction losses
* Closed body * Protects against liner rupture
* Interchangeable elastomer sleeve * Renews the valve at low cost
* No stem seals, no packings * Lower cost and no leakage problems
