APPLICATION

The knife gate valve is particularly suitable for the most difficult applications.

Area of use

Pulp production, water, water treatment, waste water, chemical industry (powdery or crystallizing products), wine-producing, pulverized products (cement work, pneumatic transport, stocking).

Fluids

water, sewage, pulp, pasty products, powdery, granular, fibrous, abrasive and crystallizing.

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

• Range : from DN 50 to DN 600.
• Function ON/OFF or regulation.
• Wafer threaded mounting ISO PN10.
• Unidirectional tightness, direction indication thanks to the arrow on the body.
• Small retention zone: the gate is guided in the body and has little clearance.
• Gland assembly: packing and O-ring (same materials as seat joint) to assure the elasticity and decrease the operating torque.
• Small head loss.
• Possibility to regulate thick fluids with the adaptation of a diaphragm ring.
• The range of knife gate valves is conceived to accept normally all the types of electric actuators thanks to its mounting flange of connecting according to the standard ISO 5210.
