Larox (Flowrox) Pinch Valves - Larox pinch valves are used for shut-off or control of process flows. A Larox (Flowrox) pinch valve uses manually or actuated bars to open / close by squeezing an inner sleeve, Larox (Flowrox) sleeves are available in a variety of materials to suit the process requirements such as abrasion resistant, chemical, high pressure, vacuum. The crucial part of Larox (Flowrox) pinch valve design is that only the sleeve is in contact with the process medium, this eliminates leaking valves, sticking valves, worn valve parts such as shafts, gates, seats, domes and hinges. Larox (Flowrox)pinch valves are available with open body, enclosed body and sealed designs, automatic versions use pneumatic, hydraulic or motor driven actuators. Only spare sleeves need to be stocked as spares LOWEST WHOLE LIFE COST TO YOU  

Larox pinch valve schematic.jpg As you can see from this example, only the sleeve is in
 contact with the process stream

 As the valve opens / closes, material deposited on the
 sleeve will be detached and passed through into the
 process stream

 Sleeves are available in a variety of materials, pressure
 ratings, flanges, and specifications (see sleeve page)

 When open the valve is 100% full bore
