Furthermore, the Pneu-Flap Torque

Pneumatic Controller is designed to be
easily adjustable for specific operating
conditions and minimize component
wear. Pump performance is improved
by optimizing the flapper valve torque.
Pneu-Flap™ Pneumatic Flapper Torque Controller
• Improved performance and higher
capacity
• Reduced wear due to less blow-back
through flapper valve
• Reduced overall maintenance cost
• Lower overall power consumption
• On-line adjustment of the flapper
valve
• Less movement of the flapper valve
• More stable operation
• Easy to install
• Change materials and torque
adjustment without shutting down
