Frequently asked questions

Who controls KZValve?

KZValve is a brand of KZCo Inc., founded and controlled by the Ziegenbein family. Brothers Keith and Kevin Ziegenbein invented the original Hydra-Halt valve in 1975 and have led the company's product development since its formal founding in 1976 (per firm website).

What industries does KZValve serve?

The company also supplies industrial customers requiring electric actuation in harsh, water-exposed environments.

The company offers motorized valves from 1/4" to 5", available in steel and poly materials. Control options range from analog signals (4-20mA) to digital CAN/ISOBUS. Product families include the Electra-Halt, Tru-Torq MX, TX2, and ZIPValve lines (per firm website).
