    The electric pinch valve is an advanced valve type designed to manage the flow of liquids and gases in various industrial applications. Known for its precision and reliability, this valve is particularly beneficial in industries that require tight flow control, such as chemical processing, food production, water treatment, and mining. CNHELI, a leading manufacturer in the field of industrial valves, has positioned itself as a key player in providing high-quality electric pinch valves designed to enhance operational efficiency and safety.

    What is an Electric Pinch Valve?
    An electric pinch valve operates using an electric actuator to control the flow of materials through a flexible tubing or hose. The core mechanism involves the pinching of a soft, elastic tube using a robust pinch mechanism, typically powered by an electric motor. By adjusting the degree of pinch, the valve can effectively regulate the flow rate, offering precise control over the material passing through the tube.
    Electric pinch valves are particularly advantageous in handling slurries, powders, and other thick, abrasive, or corrosive materials. This is due to the fact that the tube itself forms a barrier, eliminating the need for direct contact between the flowing medium and the valve parts, thus preventing wear and tear and extending the valve’s lifespan. With electric control, the operator can adjust the valve remotely, which is a significant improvement over traditional manual pinch valves.
