Schmidt® TeraValve™ XL
The Axxiom TeraValve – the next generation abrasive metering valve for blast machines with pressure-hold technology. Featuring:
- Extended Life. Schmidt XL technology utilizes tough metal alloys and internal wipers, reducing premature wear due to dust migration.
- Easy Interchangeability. Customers with older Thompson valves that need rebuilt have an easy alternative. Exchange the old valve with a new TeraValve with no modifications required!
- Efficient. Pressure-hold design maintains pressure in the pot, even with deadman released. This can save up to 15% of abrasive when your projects involve a lot of start-stop blasting. Reduces expensive compressed air consumption too!
- Economical. The compact design of the TeraValve actually costs less than the previous-gen Thompson II valve.
- Available for more applications. Pressure-release pots with limited clearance (where traditional Thompson Valves do not fit) can also benefit. Efficient pressure-hold technology can be used on any blast pot with a minimum of 6″ clearance by installing a TeraValve retrofit kit.
- Genuine Parts – Manufactured by Schmidt® / Axxiom Manufacturing
Note: Diaphragm-activated piston requires minimum of 75 psi control pressure
Schmidt® TeraValve™ XL
SKU: P-GV2130Description
The industry-proven TeraValve™ abrasive metering valve is revolutionary in its ability to provide high performance, pressure-hold blasting. The TeraValve™ is designed with a diaphragm, reducing overall size as well as maintenance. The new Schmidt® extended life (XL) technology provides durability and long life, even when used with harsh abrasives. The compact size fits easily onto low-clearance blast pots or blast cabinets without modification. This makes it easy to convert automatic blowdown pots to a more efficient and productive pressure hold system.
