Schmidt® Metering TeraValve™ XL™

SKU: P-GV2130

The industry-proven Schmidt TeraValve™ XL metering valve is revolutionary in its ability to provide high performance abrasive metering while boasting an enhanced service life.

  • Durable.  The XL (extended life) technology offers more durability – even when blasting with aggressive media like aluminum oxide or steel grit.
  • Convenient.  No special modifications are required to swap an older pressure-hold valve (like the Thompson) to a Tera. Even older pressure-release pots can be upgraded with a TeraValve Retrofit Kit, as long as there is at least 6″ clearance from the bottom of the pot.
  • Preferred.  BlastOne provides the Tera Valve as standard equipment on all new blast equipment.  In addition, we use them in our own rental fleet.

Description

The Axxiom Schmidt TeraValve XL – 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.  
  • Choices.  Available for piping sizes from as small as 1″ and 1-¼” to the standard offer 1-½” to a massive 2″ size which virtually eliminates pressure drop for high-volume or robotic applications where 2″ supply air hoses are used.  Just ensure that the pusher line and threaded coupling sizes are matched to your valve size.
  • Compatible.  Works in dry blasting or wet MistBlasting applications. 

Note:  The diaphragm-activated piston requires a minimum of 75 psi control pressure to operate.
