Knife Gate Valve

Working- In the open position, the gate is lifted or moved out of the flow path, allowing the fluid to flow through the valve unobstructed. When the valve needs to be closed, the gate is moved perpendicular to the flow path, blocking the fluid from passing through.

To ensure a tight seal and prevent leakage, the flexible sleeve or seat surrounding the gate compresses against the gate as it moves into the closed position. he valve can be partially closed to regulate the flow rate, but it is commonly used in applications where full closure is necessary to stop the flow completely.

Here are some key features:

• Design: it have a simple design with a gate or blade that moves perpendicular to the flow path to either allow or block the flow. The gate is often made of stainless steel, cast iron, or other durable materials.
• Bi-directional: are designed to be bi-directional, meaning they can effectively control flow in both directions, which is useful for applications where the fluid flow may reverse.
• Sleeve/Seat: These valves often incorporate a flexible rubber or elastomeric sleeve or seat that provides a tight seal around the gate, preventing leakage when the valve is closed.
