Mining Electric Actuated Slurry Pinch Valve High Abrasion Modulating

Mining Applications High Abrasion Modulating Type Electric Actuated Slurry Pinch Valve

Description

Our slurry pinch valves, designed to control abrasive and corrosive slurries, has a reinforced sleeve as the only wetted part of the valve.
There is no need for packing, valve seats and mechanical parts. A choice of controls is available including pneumatic, electro-pneumatic and “smart” positioners

Mining Applications

The mining industry is traditionally a heavy user of TEKO pinch, slurry and tailings handling valves because of the highly abrasive nature of metal concentrates. We have proven success using our air release valves in this same environment in slurry and tailings applications as well as leaching processes. Other common valve applications are lime addition, mineral laden process and dilution waters, and a variety of specialty applications such as pneumatic conveying of dry concentrates.

Modulating/Control Valves

Electric Operated Control Pinch Valves Unique Design Characteristics

The features and benefits of the TEKO electric pinch valve offers superior performance when….

• Abrasive and corrosive media result in high valve wear
• Scaling of mineral or chemical deposits cause valves to seize / fail to shut off due to build up on exposed valve stem and sealing surfaces
• Fibers or other handling characteristics of the media cause valves to plug or leak

These conditions present themselves in many process industries worldwide as slurry valves, sludge valves, tailings valves, lime slurry valves, wastewater valves, dewatering valves as well as manual flow control valves for pump back pressure and more intermittent control requirements.
