This knife gate valve is suitable to work with liquids with a maximum concentration of solids of 6%. If used for solids, we recommend installing with the body which indicates the contrary flow direction.
Designed for the following applications :
ND50 - 2” to ND1200 - 48” (larger sizes on request)
The mentioned working pressures are just valid for the pres- sures applied on the direction of the arrow market on the body. As the valve is designed with gate support guides, the valves are able to support a 30% of these pressures from the opposite direction without any damage on them. In these cases, the valves are not 100% water tight. To obtain total water tightness in these conditions, it is necessary to incor- porate additional supports.
DIN PN10 & ANSI B16.5 (150 LB)
All valves are tested hydrostatically at AAP Techniks, and material and test certificates can be provided.
