Explosion-proof electric pinch valves are essential components in industries where the control of fluid and gas flow is critical, especially in hazardous environments. These valves are designed to prevent ignition or sparks that might lead to explosions, ensuring safety in industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, and mining. Among the leading companies in the manufacturing of explosion-proof valves, Helix Automation stands out for its innovation, reliability, and commitment to high-quality standards.
What is an Explosion-proof Electric Pinch Valve?
An explosion-proof electric pinch valve is a type of valve used to control the flow of liquids, gases, or powders in pipes, particularly in environments where flammable or explosive substances are handled. The term "explosion-proof" refers to the valve's construction and design, which prevents the escape of any sparks or heat that could ignite the surrounding atmosphere.
Pinch valves work by using a flexible elastomeric tube, which is compressed by a mechanical actuator to restrict or control the flow. Electric pinch valves, as the name suggests, are operated through an electric actuator, providing precise control over the opening and closing of the valve.
