This document details the technical advantages of HO-Matic pinch valves, highlighting a novel housing design that reduces energy consumption by up to 40% and extends sleeve life. The valves feature a full flow cross-section with no constrictions, minimizing pressure loss and preventing clogging. Internal parts in contact with the medium are made of POM plastic, making the standard valve suitable for aggressive media, while the housing is constructed from anodized aluminum or cast aluminum alloy.
