The Type A Megaflex is the most economical large diameter automatic valve available.

First introduced by Red Valve, the Type A Megaflex Valve, available in sizes 20” to 84”, is extremely simple in design and principle.  As with every Red Valve Pinch Valve, the elastomer sleeve is the only wearing part, drastically reducing maintenance costs.  The Megaflex Valve’s full-ported actuation is accomplished by air or hydraulic pressure.  The Megaflex Valve’s steel body acts as a built-in actuator, eliminating costly pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic components.  Pressure within the space between the body and the sleeve can open, throttle, or close the valve.  Unlike traditional gate and butterfly valve designs, there are no disks or gates to obstruct flow or create turbulence.  15 psi over line pressure will close the Megaflex.

Thousands of dollars of savings are realized because Megaflex Valves have little head loss, substantially reducing pumping costs.

Type A Megaflex Valves are often used as effluent discharge valves controlling raw sewage, storm overflow, flow equalization, tailings in mining operations, and bulk material handling.
