Product Overview
The KITZ C-TNE 1/2 is a pneumatically actuated ball valve engineered for reliable on/off and modulating control of process media in industrial piping systems. Manufactured by KITZ Corporation, a globally recognized leader in valve technology, this assembly combines a precision-machined 1/2″ (DN15) ball valve body with a factory-matched pneumatic rotary actuator. The valve operates on a quarter-turn principle, where the actuator converts pneumatic supply pressure into rotational torque to position the ball, enabling fast, repeatable shutoff and flow control. Its compact, corrosion-resistant construction makes it a preferred choice for automated process lines requiring dependable isolation and low maintenance.
