Pinch valve technology for your needs
Functional safety and high clamping forces
KENDRION develops solenoid pinch valves designed according to your specifications. Such units are typically used in medical or laboratory systems or devices.
These mechatronic assemblies with precisely tuned magnetic and spring-loaded forces take care of secure clamping. Either clamping of the solenoid pinch valves can be achieved via the magnetic force (open position without current) or spring-loaded (closed without current). For increased safety requirements, an electronic control system for condition monitoring or flow detection can be integrated.
Depending on the application, single-stroke linear solenoids, reversing solenoids, or rotating solenoids are optimized for the maximum force at minimum power requirements. Bistable linear solenoids will maintain the desired position in both directions with the support of a permanent magnet without the need to apply any current. The switching operation is performed by means of an electrical pulse. These polarized solenoids are especially suitable for battery-controlled or mains-independent applications.
