As we mentioned above, the knife gate valve is also a kind of gate valve; we often see that the ordinary gate valve has the problems of heavy weight, large flow resistance, and difficult installation. The appearance of the knife gate valve solves these problems.
Knife gate valve function: Knife gate valve can replace the general shut-off valve, and can work under the working pressure of 1.0MPa-2.5MPa and the operating temperature of -29-550℃. The gate of the knife gate valve has a shearing function, which can scrape off the adhesive on the sealing surface and automatically remove the sundries, and the stainless steel gate can prevent the seal leakage caused by corrosion.
Knife gate valve application: the use occasions and applicable media of knife gate valve are:
