Efficient Hands-Free Flow Control

This foot pedal valve provides a reliable, germ-free method to control water or air flow, ideal for environments where hygiene is paramount. Its anti-slip, hard-wearing stainless steel pedal ensures durability, while the spring return mechanism guarantees automatic closure, minimizing risk of accidental spills or wasted resources.

Versatile Applications and Robust Design

Offering support for industrial, laboratory, workshops, machining floors, and hospitals, this valve combines stainless steel or brass construction with IP54 ingress protection for resilience under demanding conditions. Its compatibility with water, air, and non-corrosive fluids allows usage in varied systems, and multiple size variants provide flexibility for installation.

FAQs of Foot Pedal Valve:

Q: How does the foot pedal valve operate?

A: The foot pedal valve uses a mechanical actuation method: when you press the anti-slip stainless steel pedal with your foot, it opens the valve to allow water, air, or non-corrosive fluids to flow. The spring-return mechanism ensures the valve closes automatically when you release the pedal.

Q: What benefits does hands-free valve actuation provide?

A: Hands-free operation improves hygiene by reducing direct contact, making it ideal for hospitals, laboratories, and food processing facilities. It also enhances workflow efficiency in any environment where users hands may be occupied or contaminated.

Q: Where can this foot pedal valve be installed?

A: This valve is suitable for floor mounting or free-standing installation in a range of settings, including industrial plants, machining workshops, laboratories, and medical environments. It is designed to work in systems that handle water, air, or non-corrosive fluids.

Q: What options and customizations are available?

A: The valve is available in 2-way or 3-way configurations, with sizes of 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, and 1/2 inch. Custom finishes (nickel plated or natural), materials (stainless steel or brass), and surface smoothness can be requested to suit specific installation or aesthetic requirements.

Q: What is the installation process for this foot pedal valve?

A: Installation involves securing the valve to the floor using the mounting holes, connecting pipes via the threaded BSPT ends, and ensuring the flow direction matches your application requirements. It does not require complex tools, making integration into new or existing systems straightforward.

Q: When should you consider using a foot pedal valve instead of a hand-operated model?

A: Opt for a foot pedal valve when hands-free operation is essential for maintaining hygiene, when users hands are frequently occupied, or in settings that require efficient, consistent valve actuation, such as in industrial or laboratory environments.

Q: What is the maximum operating pressure and temperature range for this valve?

A: The valve supports up to 10 bar (145 psi) pressure and operates reliably within a temperature range of -10C to 80C, ensuring performance in a wide spectrum of environments.
