Manual  Knife Gate Valve With Rising Stem Introduction:

Note: Hard seal only

Knife gate valves are designed mainly for on-off and isolation services in systems with high content of suspended solids. The knife gate valves are especially beneficial for handling slurry, viscous, corrosive, and abrasive media. The valves have a minimized pressure drop in the fully open position, they are easy to actuate, they have a relatively low weight, and are cost-effective.

Knife gate valves are designed to work in some of the harshest environments, typically having a sharpened blade to cut through heavy liquids.

They are especially useful in wastewater applications where corrosion is an important issue. So, in addition to the valve design optimized for slurry media, it is beneficial to have a knife made of acid-proof stainless steel as this makes it less susceptible to damages caused by corrosion, and as a consequence, it needs less frequent maintenance or even replacement.

Knife Gate Valve Widely Application:

The valve is suitable for pipeline conveying such mediums including syrup, paper pulp, sludge, sewage, coal slurry, etc. for controlling switching on/off and throttling. It allows horizontal mounting as well as inclined mounting.
