Body :
The body is lugged type Wafer Design single piece of Cast steel / Stainless steel (Investment Cast upto 200 mm). It is designed to withstand pipeline stresses while in service. The body is available in variety of materials that provide corrosion and abrasion resistance. Guide Lugs are provided on the body to hold the gate securely against the raised face seat to assure positive shutoff. The body has drilled and tapped lugs on the outer rim drilled & tapped in accordance with different flange standards such as ANSI 150, ANSI 300, BS10 TD, BS10 TE, PN10, IS 1538 etc.
Gate :
Precision machined thick Stainless steel gate provides good sealing and smooth operation. The beveled knifelike edge pushes aside or cuts through solids in the flow stream. The gates are available in different materials to suit various applications.

Deflector Cone
Deflector cone is provided on the inlet of the valve for critical service application where abrasion is high. The Deflector cone is normally of Ni-hard material and protects the valve body. It is installed between the valve and the pipe flanges and diverts the abrasive material flow to the valve.
The typical application involve Bin bottom, for dry solids, mining slurries, fly-ash, bag-filter, cyclone bottom.

Purge Connection
 The purge connections are used to flush the seat area and minimize the chance of material getting clogged on the seat, thus helping smooth operation of the gate.
Purge connections are located at 5 and 7 ‘O’ clock positions on 6″ and smaller size valves and at 3,5,7 and 9 ‘O’ clock positions on 8″ and larger size valves. The purge connection can also be provided in the chest area and is normally furnished with pipe plugs and are used only for flushing if required.

Hopper Isolation Knife Gate Valve
|
| This valve is specially designed for use as isolation valve for silos handling powders. The body design includes a large relieved area on the downstream side that can accommodate some material accumulation without affecting the closing operation of the valve. Tthese valves are typically mounted with seat facing downward under silo, the body is provided with large cast guides to support the material load on the gate. This design uses a thinner gate than standard knife gate valves as same is sufficient for the typical gravity flow situations where such valves are used. The valve is designed to be dust tight. |

Coal Mill Knife Gate Valve
|
 Typically these valves are used to isolate the coal mill from the boiler furnace and are normally kept open during service. They are closed to isolate the mill from the hot flames and gases in the boiler furnace during emergency shut downs and for routine maintenance. During normal operation, when the valve is open, mixture of air and fine pulverized fuel (eg., coal) at very high velocity passes through the valve- This is a very abrasive media and calls for a valve that offers minimum flow restriction and has internal parts with high erosion resistance.
A unidirectional flanged knife gate valve specially designed to meet these exacting service requirements. It features a body construction with the bore matching the pipeline bore which keeps the pressure drop in the valve to the minimum. This means there is no raised seat in the flow path as in the case of standard knife gate valves. The internal bore of the valve is usually hardfaced to provide high resistance to erosive wear.
This valve is designed to comply with the requirements of NFPA-85 (2001) standard which governs equipment used in coaf mills and associated piping.
These valves are normally supplied with a powered actuator, usually pneumatic or electric. Other actuation options are also available where required. |
|
|
|
| Design Highlights |
Conformance to NFPA-8503 Designed to comply with requirements of NFPA-S5 (2001)
Full bore Minimum resistance to flow with bore identical to pipe bore or more.
Hard faced valve bore For resistance to highly abrasive and continuous material flow the valve bore is provided with suitable hardfacing, Seat face steiliting is aiso available as an option.
Stem protection bellows For reliable operation in dusty environment. |
