What are Knife Gate Valve?
A knife gate valve, designed specifically for on-off and isolation applications, is meticulously engineered to provide precise control over fluid or slurry flow. Its design enables it to efficiently facilitate complete shut-off or minimal-resistance flow control, making it ideal for managing various fluids or slurries in industrial settings.
Features:
We, the Knife Gate Valve Manufacturers in India are meticulously engineered to excel in handling abrasive, viscous, and highly contaminated media such as wastewater, pulp, mining slurries, and bulk solids. Their unique design incorporates a sharp-edged, flat gate or blade that moves laterally across the flow path, efficiently obstructing or permitting the passage of fluids as required.
These valves serve as indispensable flow control devices, engineered for precise regulation of fluid or slurry flow in industrial processes and systems. Recognizable by their distinctive construction, they feature a flat and sharpened gate or blade housed within the valve body. Positioned perpendicular to the flow path, the gate is controlled by an external mechanism such as a handwheel, pneumatic actuator, or electric actuator. This external mechanism facilitates smooth movement of the gate into or out of the flow path, enabling precise control over the passage of fluids.
Parts:
- Valve Body: Main housing of the valve that contains and directs the flow of fluids.
- Gate or Blade: Sharp-edged component that moves laterally across the flow path to control fluid passage.
- Stem: Connects the actuation mechanism to the gate, facilitating its movement.
- Actuation Mechanism: External mechanism such as a handwheel, pneumatic actuator, or electric actuator used to control the gate’s movement.
- Seat: Provides a sealing surface for the gate to prevent leakage when the valve is closed.
- Bonnet or Packing Gland: Encloses and secures the stem, preventing fluid leakage.
- Port: Opening through which fluid flows when the valve is open.
- Yoke and Stem Nut: Components that support and guide the stem’s movement.
- Gland Follower: Helps maintain the packing gland’s compression, ensuring a tight seal.
- Bolting and Fasteners: Secure various components of the valve together.
