The Elcometer AGV Automatic General Valve ensures precision abrasive control and fail-safe shut down of both the blast stream and media flow. The Elcometer AGV Automatic General Valve utilises all the benefits of our General Valve, including precision control of abrasive media, but features an advanced pneumatic control system which enables automatic media shut off from the blast nozzle. The ability to immediately halt abrasive flow serves to reduce material wastage whilst minimising downtime by preventing blockages within the Blast Machine. Tested to a maximum working pressure of 15bar (217psi), the valve's built-in fail-safe feature provides operators with peace of mind. What's more, its universal design ensures that it can be fitted onto most Blast Machines available on the market. Visit our key features section below for more information on its how unique design enables improved abrasive blasting results. Versatile Ideal for metering fine, heavy or aggressive abrasive materials, such as shot, grit and aluminium oxide, the pinch valve style design prevents the valve body from coming into contact with the abrasive stream as it is protected by the hardwearing elcoTOUGH™ Rubber Liner which lasts up to three times longer than market alternatives. Easy to Use With a built-in media flow indicator, the Elcometer Automatic General Valve allows the operator to adjust the media flow even whilst blasting, ensuring precise abrasive metering for a smooth, regulated flow. Fast to Service The liner wear indicator provides feedback on when our long-lasting liners will need replacing.
