A gate valve is a type of valve that uses a wedge-shaped metal gate to control the flow of fluid through a pipeline.
The gate moves up and down to allow or block the passage of media (liquid, gas, or steam) through the valve.
These valves are highly effective in fully opening or closing the flow of fluids, making them ideal for applications that require either a complete flow or a complete shut-off.
Process of Gate Valve Operation:
Gate valves operate using a simple yet highly effective mechanism.
When the valve is in the open position, the gate is fully raised, allowing uninterrupted flow through the pipe.
When the valve is closed, the gate is lowered into the seat to block the flow.
The design ensures that there is minimal flow resistance when the valve is open.
Here’s the typical process for gate valve operation:
Manual Operation: Operators manually control the valve using a handwheel or actuator.
Electric or Pneumatic Actuators: For automation, you can equip the valve with electric or pneumatic actuators for remote control.
Seating and Sealing: Designers precisely design the gate valve’s sealing surface to provide tight shut-off with minimal leakage.
Flow Control: Once the valve fully opens or closes, it does not regulate flow but ensures complete flow or blockage.
