Description
The 910-24 MagnaValve® is a normally closed valve that regulates the flow of non-ferrous materials—ceramic bead or aluminum oxide—in suction-type or pressure-type air blast machines. The 910-24 MagnaValve has only one moving part—a magnetic shuttle that provides precise media flow regulation—making it a low-maintenance valve.
A 910-24 MagnaValve is a Smart Valve with SteadyFlow Technology. It has an embedded webpage, a built-in sensor that measures flow rate, a built-in servo, and a flow rate jump-to feature that provides accurate and repeatable flow rates. The flow jump-to feature starts media flow at the desired flow rate instead of ramping up to the desired rate. The MagnaValve can be factory calibrated for various media types and sizes. It will be calibrated for the media type, size, and flow rate specified on the purchase order.
How It Works
The 910-24 MagnaValve controls media flow through the application of power to an electromagnet. Current is applied to the electromagnet surrounding the magnetic shuttle. This raises the shuttle, allowing the media to pass over the cone and drop through the capacitive sensor. The sensor measures the amount of media and generates an analog output signal. When no power is applied, or if power is interrupted for any reason, the shuttle drops onto the cone and securely blocks the flow of media.
The MagnaValve provides reliable, repetitive, and consistent media flow rates for shot peening and blast cleaning applications. The MagnaValve makes it easy to document flow rates and establish or repeat a good set-up. The valve meets the requirements of SAE AMS 2432E and other aerospace and commercial specifications.
Clear and comprehensive instruction manuals simplify installation for the 910-24 MagnaValve. In addition, the products are supported by the Electronics Inc. application engineering staff.
