Bio-Chem Fluidics has redesigned its solenoid operated pinch valves to provide more effective control of flow paths for fluid handling systems. The 075P2 2-way valves have low power requirements and are available with a normally open or normally closed valve function. The new design eliminates sharp edges, with smooth contours that allow easier insertion and removal of tubing without snares. An integrated insert provides both positive tube retention and confirmation of correct tubing size. Manual push-button override is available as an option. The new design also includes a valve body constructed from Luran and a plunger composed of Ryton. These materials are resistant to most common cleaning solutions and meet Bio-Chem Fluidics two-million cycle operation standard.
