Pinch Valve Structure of Type VM The structure of the VM series air operated pinch valves encompasses sleeve, pinch valve body, two sockets and two retaining rings. The pinch valve sleeve is positioned in the centre of the VM series air pinch valve's body; both of its ends are pressed in by the sockets, which are screwed to the body over the two retaining rings, thus forming a compact unit. Materials of AKO air operated Pinch Valves VM series A selection of different elastomer grades for the sleeve such as NR, CR, EPDM, FPM, silicone, NBR, IIR, CSM or various sleeves in food quality ensures that the VM series air operated pinch valves have a very wide and practically unrestricted field of application.
