HOW TO MAKE CONCRETE PUMPING SAFE
The Vega® Air Shut Off Valve is a safety device made of textile fiber with a rubber sleeve inside. When inflated by compressed air, it shuts off the rubber hose on which it is installed in a diaphragm-like manner. The valve is an integral component of an optional feature for concrete pumps. In case of need, the operator can decide to stop the flow instantaneously by acting on a special control that interrupts pumping and at the same time operates the shut-off valve by “squeezing” the rubber hose. The concrete is released later when pumping is resumed. If your machine does not have this integrated system, contact RM®.
