Abstract:  
Reprinted from the summer issue of Abrasive Blast Cleaning News This article will explain how to replace the mechanical media (grit) valve on a wheel type blast cleaning machine with the new MagnaValve automatic media regulator. The two most prominent reasons for this type of upgrade are: a) to eliminate maintenance required for the air cylinder that operates the mechanical valve and b) to provide an automatic alarm to alert the operator to replenish the shot/grit supply.
