rising stem knife gate valve

Product Description:

The Rising Stem Knife Gate Valve is a robust and reliable valve designed for isolating and regulating the flow of abrasive, viscous, or solid-laden media in various industrial applications. Featuring a rising stem design, this valve ensures clear visual indication of the valve position (open or closed) during operation. The sharp-edged knife gate can easily cut through thick, solid, or slurry-type media, making it an ideal solution for applications such as mining, wastewater treatment, and pulp & paper industries.

The rising stem mechanism ensures smooth operation and is particularly advantageous when frequent valve position adjustments are required. This valve is available in a variety of sizes, materials, and configurations, offering flexibility to meet specific application needs.

Product Features:

Rising Stem Design: The valve stem rises above the valve body when the valve is opened, providing a clear visual indication of valve position. This feature is essential for ensuring safety and operational efficiency in manual or automated systems.

Knife Gate Design: The gate is designed with a sharp, cutting edge to slice through thick, viscous, or solid-laden media. It ensures tight shutoff even when dealing with slurries, slurry-type materials, or abrasive substances.

Durable Construction: Constructed from high-strength materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, and cast iron, this valve offers exceptional resistance to corrosion and abrasion, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh working environments.

Versatile Seal Options: The valve comes with various sealing materials such as rubber, PTFE, or metal seals, providing an optimal seal depending on the nature of the media and operational conditions.

Wide Range of Sizes: The valve is available in sizes ranging from DN50 to DN1200, allowing it to be used in different pipeline sizes and applications, including large-diameter systems.

Manual or Automated Operation: The valve can be operated manually with a handwheel or actuated with an electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic actuator, making it suitable for both manual and automated processes.

Advantages

Clear Position Indicator: The rising stem design provides a visual indication of the valve's position, ensuring easy operation and reducing the risk of incorrect operation. This is especially beneficial for manual operation or in environments where automated control is not available.

Reliable Isolation: The knife gate mechanism ensures a reliable and tight shutoff even with solid, abrasive, or viscous media. The sharp-edged gate minimizes friction and wear, allowing the valve to maintain a strong seal for an extended period.

Adaptability: This valve is suitable for various types of media, including slurries, wastewater, chemicals, and thick or solid-laden fluids, making it versatile across industries such as mining, pulp & paper, wastewater treatment, and chemical processing.

Minimal Maintenance: Thanks to its durable materials and simple yet efficient design, the rising stem knife gate valve requires minimal maintenance, reducing downtime and operational costs.

Flexible Installation: Available with flanged or lugged connections, the valve offers flexible installation options for easy integration into new or existing piping systems.
