TS1212 Disposable Pinch Tube Valve

Description

TS1201 Series Disposable Pinch Tube Valves provide exceptional control for both continuous and micro-shot applications of low to semi-viscous fluids. The valve operates through a spring-loaded mechanism: once the dispense cycle is complete, the air signal ceases, and the internal spring forces a piston to “pinch” the disposable feed path, effectively shutting off the flow.

The TS1201 is a hand-held version designed for manual operation, where the user controls the dispensing cycle by simply pressing or releasing a finger lever. Both the automated and manual versions feature a built-in flow rate adjustment for fine-tuning. Because the disposable pinch tube is the only part in contact with the fluid, this valve is uniquely suited for dispensing aggressive or fast-curing materials, such as two-part resins and Cyanoacrylates (CA), without the risk of valve contamination or damage.

Features

  • Zero Cleaning Maintenance: Features a disposable feed path that prevents fluid from contacting the valve body, eliminating the need for time-consuming cleaning.
  • Specialized Material Paths: UV Protection: Optional black feed paths are available to protect light-sensitive fluids from premature curing.
    • Material Compatibility: Optional polyurethane feed paths provide versatility for various chemical applications.

  • User-Friendly Operation: Designed for simplicity, making it easy to set up and operate for both manual and automated processes.
  • Compact & Lightweight: The small footprint and reduced weight make it ideal for hand-held use or mounting on precision robotic arms with limited payload.
