Features, functions, and applications of the C1 model

As specialists in the manufacture and sale of automatic control valves, at Valfonta we offer a broad catalog of products built on our experience in the industry to provide our customers with the highest quality.

With extensive experience dating back to 1962, our premise and vision have been to become market leaders by providing products of the very highest quality along with customer service, so we focus on meeting your requirements.

That is why Valfonta presents our automatic control valves, especially the C1 model, whose versatility makes it an essential element in handling the fluids of your industrial process and a highly attractive addition in terms of value for money. To choose the right model and size, follow the steps in our guide to control valve selection.

What is an automatic control valve and how does it work?

Automatic control valves are devices that form part of industrial facilities and regulate the pressure in the piping across different production applications. These valves are hydraulically operated, so they work in a very simple and effective way, optimizing each phase of flow control. 

For this reason, control valves with pneumatic actuator are a key element in any manufacturing design.

In addition, their application is quite versatile and can be useful for different industrial sectors that require effective handling of clean fluids and wastewater to protect the integrity and safety of the product and of the workers involved.

In addition, automatic control valves have a compact design that allows them to perform all their functions with minimal wear. For this reason, while the flow opens and closes, these devices maintain a constant pressure that considerably reduces energy and fluid losses. 

So whether it operates as a one-way or two-way flow control valve, with this product you can be certain that the operation of your industrial facility will be safe.

What does our C1 model automatic control valve offer?

As one of the leading companies in the automatic control valve sector, at Valfonta we have identified which elements are truly essential in any industrial design. Based on that, we have designed and manufactured a wide range of products that can meet each of your needs, depending on the type of fluid or material you want to handle. 

However, we must highlight the versatility of our C1 automatic control valve model, which is properly designed and conceived to be efficient in different types of environments.

Consequently, our C1 model has the usual features attributed to this product range, but it also allows the addition of a pneumatic actuator that improves the passage of fluids and considerably increases the efficiency of the automatic control valve. 

Likewise, its robust construction allows it to withstand high pressure and temperature, so that its operation is not overly strained by external conditions. Its solid lining also allows different options in fluid control: from the most conventional, such as water, to corrosive media that would otherwise compromise the integrity of the valve in the short term. The C1 model valve from Valfonta is able to perform fully in situations of this kind.

You can see all our models on the control valves page, including the C1 control valve with pneumatic actuator.

What else should you consider about automatic control valves?

Certainly, beyond the properties that are as attributable as they are inherent to the operation of these mechanisms, an automatic control valve must be duly certified under the strictest quality standards, so this is a feature that should be checked before any purchase. You can see Valfonta’s quality certificates: ISO 9001, Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU, and ATEX.

In this context, ISO 9001:2000 is the standard that governs management systems according to the construction and design of the automatic control valve, in terms of both its capacity and its size. Therefore, at Valfonta we have stood out for offering only products that meet these and other parameters that ensure proper operation, so that our customers can feel fully supported.

On the other hand, fluid control depends on several factors, but with automatic control valves, it is crucial that the entire assembly process of the industrial facility is carried out thoroughly so that there are no faults affecting the manufacturing process. In this regard, the operation of control valves is an excellent indicator, since unusual behavior can help identify design errors in the machinery.
