Ball Segment Valves offer an unobstructed cross section when open.
Free material flow is the result. Viewed from the top, no other free-flow valve offers any more compact overall dimensions.
To intercept material flow from bins, hoppers, silos, processing machines, or pneumatic conveying of materials showing poor flowability, the use of a VSS Ball Segment Valve may be the most appropriate choice.
VSS Ball Segment Valves can be used in virtually all industries.
Function
To intercept material flow from bins, hoppers, silos, processing machines, or pneumatic conveying of materials showing poor flowability, the use of a VSS Ball Segment Valve may be the most appropriate choice.
Unlike butterfly valves, Ball Segment Valves offer an unobstructed cross section when open.
Free material flow is the result. Viewed from the top, no other free-flow valve offers any more compact overall dimensions.
Features
Compact overall dimensions, simple design, few components.
Valve body made from carbon steel or stainless steel with SINT engineering polymer lining.
Closing segment made from SINT engineering polymer.
Full bore through material flow.
Short action.
Suitable for standard or food-grade applications: from fine, abrasive powders to cohesive materials.
Adjustable shaft seal.
Low-friction operation.
Adaptable to a variety of materials and particle sizes.
Manual, pneumatic, electric actuators.
PATENTED.
Benefits
Easy handling of abrasive materials.
Possible to re-establish sealing efficiency even after extended operating periods.
Can be used virtually in all industries including food-grade applications.
VFS Butterfly Valves consist of two high-pressure aluminium alloy die-cast semi-bodies, a SINT polymer composite or cast iron swivel disc, and a pre-stressed elastomer seal.
VM/VMM-type Pinch Valves are used for interception of material flow in pneumatic conveying systems, or other pipelines. In addition, they can be installed as a locking device for silo filling pipes.
