A quick-acting gate valve is a valve used to shut off or regulate the flow of liquid in a pipeline. It is called "quick acting" because it can be opened or closed quickly with a manual or automatic mechanism. The name "knife gate valve" comes from the fact that the valve has a blade that moves up and down in the valve body to control the flow of the liquid. When the blade is raised, it opens the flow path and allows the liquid to pass through. When the gate is lowered, it blocks the flow path and prevents the fluid from flowing. Quick-acting gate valves are widely used in various industrial applications, such as water treatment, m...
A quick-acting gate valve is a valve used to shut off or regulate the flow of liquid in a pipeline. It is called "quick acting" because it can be opened or closed quickly with a manual or automatic mechanism. The name "knife gate valve" comes from the fact that the valve has a blade that moves up and down in the valve body to control the flow of the liquid. When the blade is raised, it opens the flow path and allows the liquid to pass through. When the gate is lowered, it blocks the flow path and prevents the fluid from flowing. Quick-acting gate valves are widely used in various industrial applications, such as water treatment, mining and wastewater management. They are also used where quick shut-off is required, such as in emergency shut-off systems.
Fergo plate valve: That’s what a quick-closing damper offers
If one is up to the task of providing a reliable seal by endeavouring, they should go for a quick closing valve, also known as a plate valve. Here, the FERGO slide gate is a particularly rational material solution because it provides an obstacle to the different types of fluids, gases, and bulk solids within an industrial facility, such as an industrial workshop where liquids, gases, or solids are to be securely regulated.
Mechanical aspects of the FERGO quick-closing valve
The FERGO slide valve is available in valve sizes from DN50 to DN300 and possesses a durable construction that is made of high-quality materials to guarantee operation in most demanding conditions. The housing made of high-quality GG25 cast iron gives stability and tough construction. The slide blade with stainless steel SS304L (1.4306) is not only resistant to corrosion but also tight while the spindle made of stainless steel SS303 (1.4305) insures a backlash-free, stable driving action. The quick closing valve, as the principal component the slide as a one-piece in a flange intermediate design, can be dully made in a way ensuring to seal on one or both sides of the equipment. It is designed for insertion between or on flanges according to PN10 and has to last the maximum pressure of 10 bar.
The Gaskets and their Temperature resistance
In order to adjust the seat ring to different media and application fields, you get either NBR or EPDM amazingly. The set consists of the PTFE synthetic and NBR or PTFE synthetic and EPDM combined together for a sure seal. The plate shutter can also be used in the temperature range of -20 deg celcius to +90°C making it quite versatile. Quick closing valve for effortless actuation The exciting feature of this quick closing valve is the painted steel lever. The job could be done in a smart way, with the main advantage of enabling you to rapidly operate the shutdown blade. In other words, it gives you the option to be fast when it counts.
FERGO Quick Closing Sluice Valve – the Essentials in a Nutshell
When it comes to industrial damming solutions, the FERGO Quick Closing Valve is an example of being unbeatable in quality, robustness, and operation. Its premium materials, possibility of gasket variations and easy maneuverability make it a huge success story during your individual stopping operation as well. It is also the main reason why it is as well as the rest of the required infinitives.
