Model with proccess connection Tube-Tube. The models are certificated for use in potentially explosive Dust and Gas atmospheres as well as in hybrid mixtures (Dust + Gas) hazardous areas.

The pneumatic pinch valves VN with the elastic hose are to be used to control the transport or distribution for dusty and powdery, granulated and grainy bulk goods or viscous or liquid products.

Inside the valves there is an elastic hose made of Natural gummy that is squeezed either by compressed air or by water pressure. The existing solids are enclosed due to this compression and when there is no pressure in the valve, the hose opens and returns to the original shape allowing the flow of product.

There are models with diameters from 13 to 125 mm and with many proccess connections like flange-flange, racor-racor, tube-tube or combinations of them and with the hose made of NRE.

The mounting of these models is made by insterting the valve between a pipe with the tube connections.
