Flanged Knife Gate Valve

Flanged Knife Gate Valve Suppliers in Saudi Arabia: Efficient Flow Isolation

Middleeast valve is the leading Flanged knife gate valve suppliers in Saudi Arabia. It is a type of valve designed to handle thick fluids and slurries with high solids content. It is named for its sharp-edged gate that can cut through such materials, providing a clean and effective shut-off.

Major Components:

1. Gate (Knife): Thin, vertically moving blade to obstruct or permit flow
2. Body: Sturdy frame, typically constructed of stainless steel or cast iron
3. Flanged Ends: Facilitate simple bolted connection to piping
4. Seats: Provide tight seating against the gate
5. Actuator: Manual, pneumatic, or electric according to system requirement

Working Mechanism:

While actuated, the gate rotates up or down between the seats within the valve body. For the closed mode, it fully shuts off the flow. Flanged ends form a leak-tight connection with the piping system, which renders it extremely safe under pressure.

Advantages:

• Easy installation and removal owing to flanged design
• Ideal for slurry and solid media handling
• Space-saving and compact structure
• Facilitates high-pressure and high-temperature applications
• Low maintenance and long service life
