Electronic Pinch Valve APV Series Features • • • • • • • Small, compact design Low power consumption Hygienic and easy to clean(replace tubes) High cycle life Can handle whole blood and particulate matter Unobstructed flow path Tubing is easily replaceable APV electronic pinch valve is solenoid-operated pinch valve that is designed to open and close tubes for controlling flow of liquids and gases. Other valve types have internal dead volume that may cause small amounts of fluid to remain in the valve. Pinch valves have no dead volume where fluid can become trapped. Only the inside of the tubing contacts the fluid. Energizing the solenoid retracts or attracts the plunger, which opens or closes the tube. De-energizing the solenoid will allow the plunger to return to its original state. Normally open and normally closed options are available.
