Product Overview
The KITZ C-TE 2 is a pneumatically actuated ball valve engineered for reliable quarter-turn on/off control of process media in industrial fluid handling systems. Manufactured by KITZ Corporation, a globally recognized leader in valve technology, this assembly combines a precision-machined ball valve body with a pneumatic rotary actuator, delivering fast, repeatable actuation without the need for manual intervention. The valve operates on a simple 90° rotation principle: the pneumatic actuator drives the ball through a quarter-turn, aligning or blocking the flow path through the valve bore. This design provides excellent flow characteristics with minimal pressure drop in the open position and bubble-tight shutoff when closed. The C-TE 2 is well-suited for automated process lines, remote-controlled manifolds, and safety-critical isolation points where dependable pneumatic operation and long service life are essential.
