RF Valves Vent-O-Mat - Model Series RBX -Air Release Valves
The original “Anti-Shock” & “Anti-Surge” air release and vacuum break valves for water, and other liquids with up to 5% solids. RF Valves, Inc. specializes in advanced pinch valve solutions for managing the flow of water, sewage, slurry, and other liquids. Their Electric Pinch Valve distinguishes itself through a patented design that incorporates elastomer tube folds to mitigate stretching, thereby enhancing valve longevity. This design makes the valve suitable for various industries, including municipal systems, mining, chemical, and power sectors. Capable of handling rigorous applications, these valves support inline tube changes and are equipped with wear sensors for maintenance efficiency.
Key configurations include options for electric, hydraulic, manual, and pneumatic actuation, catering to a wide size range, temperatures, and working pressures. Additionally, RF Valves provide standardized face-to-face flange drilling and robust body materials to withstand diverse environmental conditions.
