Wafer Style Slurry Knife Gate Valve

Wafer style, slurry knife gate valve shall be packing less, rubber-lined, bi directional valve suitable for wide range of industrial
applications. The full port design shall have no internal obstructions and will provide a “blind flange” shut off when the gate is
closed. The valves sealing surface to be between two rubber sleeves that are compressed in to the ductile iron valve
housings. The sleeve will be molded with an integral stiffener ring that locates the sleeve in the valve housing and helps the
sleeves resist the high shearing forces present when the gate is driven between them. Valve has a one-piece, Molded,
replaceable elastomer secondary seal to eliminate any leakage between the knife edge gate and top of the valve body in any
orientation and prevent any outside contaminants from getting inside the valve. It shall be dynamically self-adjusting,
eliminating the need for continual adjustment. The secondary seal shall retain a silicon-based lubrication to lubricate the gate
as it cycles through the seal, providing smoother gate movement and longer seal life, as well as reducing the force required
to actuate the gate. The stainless steel gate shall be completely withdrawn from the process flow when in the open position,
and can be inspected and replaced, if necessary, without taking the valve out of service.

When the valve is in the closed position, the downstream sleeve can be replaced while the upstream portion of the valve is
still holding pressure.

The valve body housing to be flanged, universal type standard drilled and tapped to suit ANSI B16.5/150 with optional PN10
or PN16 or others, as required. Valve is quipped with a cylinder/Electric actuator. All nonferrous exterior surfaces shall be

Electric Actuators

Motorized controls may be applied to valves of any size, for operation in practically any position or location. All units,
whether installed directly on a valve on or a floor stand, can be manually operated in case of power failure.

The units are available with single and three phase Actuators and are sized for specified conditions of operation. Motor
units are available with limit switches and push button controls which can be selected to meet customer's requirements.

SDTORK Electric Actuator can be directly assembled with the Knife edge Gate valve The Actuator is basically a worm
gear type reduction gear box. A single stage grease bath worm gear gives quietness and reliability in operation. The valve
can be fully opened, fully closed or adjusted to Any intermediately position. The rectory force on the worm shaft which is a
Floating one is directly proportional to the output torque and is absorbed by a set of disc springs. The lateral movement of
the worm shaft under load, trip closes the Torque switch. The driving motor is a TEFC/TESC squirrel cage class induction
