The Red Valve Series 5400 Control Pinch Valve is a
bi-directional valve designed for tough slurry appli-
cations. The elastomer sleeve closes on centerline,
creating a smooth venturi which reduces wear. The
flexing action of the sleeve breaks up any sediment
or build-up in the valve, which makes the Series
5400 a reliable, low maintenance control valve.
A variety of elastomers are available to suit your
specific needs. Along with the standard Red Valve
sleeve, we offer Cone, Variable Orifice, Reduced Port,
and Double Wall sleeves for special applications.
