manual knife gate valve

Product Description:

The Manual Knife Gate Valve is a robust, manual-operated valve designed for the isolation of abrasive and viscous fluids in pipelines. This valve is ideal for industries that require efficient flow control in harsh conditions, such as mining, wastewater treatment, chemical processing, and paper mills. The sharp-edged gate is specifically engineered to cut through thick slurries, sediments, and viscous media, ensuring a tight seal when closed and reliable shut-off performance.

Its manual actuation provides simplicity and ease of control in a wide variety of applications, making it a cost-effective and durable solution for low-maintenance operation. Designed for rugged environments, the Manual Knife Gate Valve provides secure isolation and prevents backflow, offering operational efficiency in fluid systems with minimal downtime.

Product Features:

Manual Actuation: The valve is operated using a handwheel or gearbox, offering precise control over valve operation in both open and closed positions. The manual operation eliminates the need for external power sources, ensuring simplicity and reliability.

Knife Gate Design: The sharp-edged gate is specifically designed to cut through viscous, abrasive slurries and solid particles, providing an effective shut-off.

Sealing Options: The valve can be equipped with elastomeric soft seals or metal-to-metal seals, depending on the application, to achieve optimal sealing performance.

Durable Construction: Made from high-quality materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or cast iron, the manual knife gate valve is resistant to corrosion and wear, providing long-lasting service life.

Wide Range of Sizes: Available in various sizes, from DN50 to DN1800, the valve can cater to a broad spectrum of pipeline diameters.

Compact and Robust Design: Despite its rugged capabilities, the valve is designed to be space-efficient, making it suitable for installations in confined spaces.

Advantages:

Cost-Effective: Manual operation eliminates the need for actuators, reducing both initial installation costs and maintenance expenses.

Reliable Performance: The knife gate's sharp edge effectively cuts through tough media, ensuring tight sealing and dependable shut-off.

Low Maintenance: The manual operation and simple design minimize the risk of failure, leading to reduced maintenance requirements and downtime.

Versatile Applications: The valve can handle a variety of harsh media, including slurries, sediments, and chemicals, making it highly versatile across different industries.

Minimal Space Requirement: The compact design is ideal for installations where space is limited, without sacrificing performance.
