World-Class Gate Valves available at Emechmart
Gate valves and knife valves are advantageous in applications involving slurries, as their "gates" can cut directly through the slurry. It is also used in applications that contain viscous liquids such as heavy oils, light greases, varnishes, molasses, honey, cream and other non-flammable viscous liquids. The flow control gate valve is available in larger sizes to handle coarse currents well. However, gate valve types have a low-pressure limit, and are not ideal in applications requiring cleanliness or sanitary conditions.
The water gate valve is excellent for use where a shutoff valve is required. When necessary, they can also be used where throttling capabilities are desired, although this is not generally recommended for globe gate valve due to seat erosion and disc vibration characteristic of gate valve for throttling applications.
Gate valves and knife valves are designed to minimize the pressure drop across the valve in the fully open position and completely stop fluid flow. The direction of fluid flow does not change, and the diameter through which the process fluid passes is essentially the same as that of the pipe. Therefore, the plumbing gate valve has minimal pressure drop when fully opened.
Emechmart- Buy Gate Valve for Different domains
Emechmart delivers top-notch industrial gate valves at unbeatable prices. These gate valves excel in on-off operations, making them ideal for setups that rarely need internal access. Count on us for reliable solutions from leading industrial gate valve manufacturer. The high-pressure gate valve is designed for full field flow to minimize pressure drop and allow pipe-cleaning pigs to pass through. Since most of the flow changes occur near shutoff, relatively high fluid velocities cause disc and seat wear and eventually leakage if a valve is used to control the flow.
Composition of Gate Valve at Emechmart
The body of the gate valve contains all the operational gate valve parts. It is attached to the system with one of the mounting options below. Mounting options should be selected based on current system mounting features and media type and size. Buy highly-durable industrial products at affordable gate valve cost.
Gate Valve Parts |
Attributes |
Threaded |
Valves have internal or external threads for inlet or outlet connection(s). |
Compression fitting |
Sealed pipe connection without soldering or threading. As the nut on one fitting is tightened, it compresses the washer around the other pipe, creating a watertight closure. |
Metal face seal |
The valve consists of a metal gasket sandwiched between two fitting parts. The gasket forms a face seal on each side of the fitting. |
Bolt flange |
The valve has bolted flange(s) for inlet or outlet connection. |
Clamp flange |
The valve has clamp flange(s) for inlet or outlet connection. |
Union |
The valve has a union connection for the inlet or outlet connection(s). |
Tube Fittings |
Valves have fittings for direct connection to tubing at the inlet and/or outlet connections. |
Socket weld |
The valve has a socket weld connection for inlet or outlet connection. |
Gate Valve applications
The lever gate valve, fire safe gate valve, and flap gate valve are used in many industrial applications including the oil and gas industry, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, automotive and marine.
Non-rising stem gate valves are very popular on ships, in underground applications or where vertical space is limited because they do not take up extra space. Gate valves can be used in demanding environments such as high-temperature and high-pressure environments. The gate valve for water line is often found in power plants, water treatment, mining and offshore applications.
