A pinch valve is a type of control valve that regulates the flow of liquids, powders, and other materials in pipelines. It functions by pinching a flexible tube or liner, which is controlled by an actuator. The WCB Electric Pinch Valve, as the name suggests, is powered by an electric actuator, making it a versatile and energy-efficient solution for applications requiring precise flow control. The valve is often used in industries such as chemical processing, water treatment, mining, and food production, where the handling of abrasive or corrosive fluids is common.
