Product Overview
The FESTO VZQA-C-M22C-6-…-CS (Part No. 8150906) is a pneumatically actuated pinch valve from Festo’s VZQA series, engineered for the contamination-tolerant shut-off of abrasive, viscous, fibrous, and particulate-laden media in industrial process lines. The valve operates on a flexible elastomeric sleeve that is compressed by a pneumatic actuator to interrupt flow, keeping the working medium fully isolated from the valve mechanism and eliminating dead pockets, seats, and cavities where media could accumulate. With a nominal line size of DN 6, this compact pinch valve is suited to dosing, filling, and shut-off duties in food processing, pharmaceutical, water treatment, and general process automation systems where reliable full-bore closure and easy cleaning are essential.

Engineering Features & Advantages
- Precision Performance: Full-bore sleeve closure provides unobstructed flow with minimal pressure drop and bubble-tight shut-off, while the pinch principle tolerates abrasive, fibrous, and particulate media without clogging or seat wear.
- Media Isolation: The working fluid contacts only the replaceable elastomeric sleeve, protecting the pneumatic actuator and internal mechanism from corrosive or contaminated process media.
- Industrial Reliability: Built for continuous operation under severe industrial conditions, with a robust pneumatic actuator and spring-return fail-safe closure on loss of pilot pressure.
- Direct Fit Replacement: Precision-manufactured to original FESTO specifications for direct replacement, minimising downtime and eliminating fitment issues.
Typical Industrial Applications
With a nominal line size of DN 6, this compact pinch valve is suited to dosing, filling, and shut-off duties in food processing, pharmaceutical, water treatment, and general process automation systems where reliable full-bore closure and easy cleaning are essential.
