Product Description

For Waits Valve durable Bronze Wedge Gate Valve, the gate is gradually lifted and away from the valve seat sealing surface by rotating the handwheel or driving the valve stem through the drive device. Pressure range CL150~CL300 PN10 ~ PN16. The valve adopts rising stem operation and is equipped with a solid wedge disc. Not suitable for drinking water.

Working principle:
When the gate lift height reaches about 1 times the nominal diameter of the valve, the fluid channel is unblocked and the valve is fully opened. In actual use, the top of the valve stem is usually used as the full opening indication. After reaching the top position, the hand wheel is usually turned 1/2 to 1 turn as the actual fully open position to prevent locking due to temperature changes. When the hand wheel or drive device is rotated in the opposite direction, the valve stem drives the gate to descend, and the gate sealing surface gradually fits the valve seat sealing surface. Sealing is achieved by pressing the gate tightly against the valve seat through external force or medium pressure to prevent the flow of medium.

Performance Characteristics
Bronze Wedge Gate Valve has a straight-through media channel inside the valve body, which has low fluid resistance, and the media flows in a straight line with low flow resistance, which can effectively reduce system pressure loss.
Compared with stop valves, the movement direction of the gate is perpendicular to the flow direction of the medium, making opening and closing easier.
The medium can flow in both directions, and there is no need to consider the flow direction of the medium during installation, which is convenient for installation and use in different pipeline systems. It has a simple appearance and a relatively short structural length, which is more advantageous in occasions where the installation space is limited. It has good manufacturing processability and a wide range of applications.
The product can be Handwheel operated; Gear operated; Pneumatic operated; Electric operated; Hydraulic operated
