Knife type gate valve is also one kind of gate valves, which has a knife-shaped valve pate which can cut off the medium to avoid the closing of the knife gate valve to be blocked by the medium. The appearance of the knife gate valve solves the problems of heavy weight, large flow resistance, large area and difficult to install of those ordinary gate valves. The knife gate valve can replace the general cut-off industrial valve. Knife type gate valve can work with the working pressure 1.0Mpa-2.5Mpa, and the working temperature -29-550℃. the valve plate of the knife type gate valve has a shearing function, which can scrape off the adhesion on the sealing surface and automatically remove the sundries. And also the stainless steel valve plate can prevent the sealing leakage caused by medium corrosion.Â
Wide applications of knife type gate valves:Â
Knife type gate valve is suitable for coal preparation, slag discharge, urban sewage treatment, food, paper making, medicine, petroleum, chemical and other oils, water and steam pipelines, connecting and cutting off the cement slurry, gold ore powder,ore sand, slag, coal slime, pulp, wood pulp, tailing, fiber, dust, chemical treatment sewage, sedimentation tank, asphalt, silo outlet, fruit, grain, slaughterhouse, waste water and other mediums in the pipelines.
Advantages of knife type gate valve
1. the sealing surface on the valve plate of the knife type gate valve can lifted, which can scrape off the adhesive on the sealing surface and automatically remove the sundries.Â
2. The stainless steel valve plate of the knife gate valve can prevent sealing leakage caused by corrosion, and the fine grinding and polishing treatment can obtain better sealing effect.Â
3. The stainless steel body of the knife gate valve is durable and has long service life, the reinforcement design of the valve body can improve the strength of the valve body, the studs are used for a quick opening and closing.Â
4. The valve body and stuffing box are all precision casting. The valve body is integrally cast. The body material can be selected from ss304, ss316, ss316L, WCB, 2Cr13 according to customer’s requirement. The sealing ring of the knife gate valve can be made of reinforced PTFE material, which is corrosion resistant, wear resistant, and no slag.Â
5. The full-circle DC channel design of the knife gate valve has no slag and no jamming.Â
6. The scientific design of the upper sealing stuffing box makes the upper sealing more safe and effective, and durable.Â
7. The face to face structural length of knife type gate valve is short, can save more raw materials and installation space, and also can effectively support the pipeline strength.Â
8. The triangular bracket of knife gate valve can save raw materials used, and guarantee the required mechanical properties.Â
9. The guide block on the valve body of the knife gate valve make the valve plate move correctly. Extrusion blocks ensure the effective sealing of the knife gate valve.Â
10. The valve plate of the knife gate valve has 5 supporting points, when the knife gate valve is closed and bearing back pressure, the valve plate of the knife gate valve will not be offset.Â
