Only genuine Schmidt® brand valves and controls are designed and manufactured to be the most durable and reliable in the industry. We select the highest quality materials and carefully match them for use in crafting Schmidt valves and controls under tight specifications and tolerances. No other brand can match the combination of operator safety, performance, durability and dependability of a Schmidt valve or control.
Designed to use significantly less abrasive than other brands. Engineered to maximize blasting productivity and reduce downtime.
Convenient conversion kits to fit most brands of abrasive blasting equipment. Upgrade your performance with authentic Schmidt brand valves and controls.
The new TeraValve™ abrasive metering valve is revolutionary in its ability to provide high performance, pressure hold blasting at a cost effective price point. It is the result of a new approach in thinking, combined with the tradition of Schmidt® expertise in design and manufacturing. The TeraValve is diaphragm activated, simplifying overall operation and maintenance. The new Schmidt extended life (XL™) technology is incorporated for durability and long life, even when the valve is used with harsh abrasives. The compact size fits easily onto low clearance blast pots or blast cabinets without modification, making it easy to convert automatic blowdown pots to a more efficient and productive pressure hold system.
The next-generation valve in the Thompson Valve line. Shuts off abrasive flow to the nozzle and seals the tank at the same instant. Ideal for multiple outlet use. It offers significant improvements over the original Thompson Valve designed to improve performance, makes servicing easier, and extend service life. Faster response, finer control. More sleeve choices available to accommodate a wider range of abrasives and applications. The abrasive airblast industry's choice for abrasive metering and control.
The newest advances in abrasive metering and control valve technology are incorporated in this valve. Shuts off abrasive flow to the nozzle and seals the tank in the same instant. We designed this valve to address the unique challenges of the harshest blasting environments including those operating continuously with aluminum oxide.
Nothing comes close to matching the performance, reliability, serviceability and life of this valve. If minimizing downtime and keeping your operation up and running are critical to you, you need this valve.
The next-generation valve in the MicroValve® line. Provides near-infinite, precise metering of abrasive media. This valve incorporates numerous improvements designed to increase performance, and make the valve easier to use, easier to service. Suggested for use with the ComboValve® control valve.
An industry workhorse. The original ComboValve® control valve. Combines the functions of the air inlet valve and blowdown valve, eliminating premature failure of the blowdown system. Only a genuine Schmidt brand ComboValve offers superior performance, durability and reliability.
For the perfect balance of operator comfort and safety. Easily the industry's most popular deadman control. Pneumatic or electric.
The original Thompson Valve that revolutionized abrasive metering and control. Nothing matches the performance, reliability and durability of a genuine Schmidt® valve.
Shuts off abrasive flow to the nozzle and seals the tank at the same instant.
The original Schmidt metering valve. Provides total control of the quantity of abrasive media used. Near-infinite metering capability. Suitable for use with a range of abrasives. Normally open.
The industry favorite Schmidt® G2 pneumatic and electric deadman controls are now available in a trigger style option. The new Trigger G3 Deadman provides exceptional ease and comfort while maintaining the same dependability and safety of the Schmidt G2 Deadman controls.
The Schmidt® G3 Trigger Deadman with Abrasive Cutoff (ACO) combines time-tested features and components in an innovative design to produce unprecedented ergonomics and provide blasters with the most comfortable deadman in the industry. This deadman not only has the time-proven performance of all Schmidt deadman but incorporates an additional switch for Abrasive Cutoff.
The Abrasive Cutoff switch, integrated into the G3 deadman, gives the operator a safer alternative to the industry standard of individual switches on the blast hose, no longer does the operator have to release the hose with one hand to access the ACO Switch.
ACO allows the operator to control the abrasive independently from the air. Operators can choose air only or blast conventionally with abrasive.
• Operators can use the blast hose to blow off the work piece without needing to access the blast pot.
• The ACO allows the operator to purge all the abrasive out of the blast hose before shutting the nozzle down. This is critical for blasting at heights. If the blast hose is not purged, the operator will have a “slug” of abrasive every time
they engage the deadman. This slug creates intense, erratic movements at the nozzle, which have led to accidents. With an ACO system, operators can shut off the abrasive and wait a few seconds for the blast hose to clear before releasing deadman to shut down. This prevents the slug at the start of the next operation.
