'''Slide Gate Valve''' is designed for shut off and throttling in difficult abrasive and/or high solids slurry service. The standard round port configuration is used for on/ off service and the optional diamond port configuration is used for throttling. Available with a handwheel or automated, and it has the unique ability to operate in a static column of solid particles and powders. The opening in the slide gate merely moves a disc of material laterally then returns it when the slide gate is reversed. Consult factory for shut off capability with standard and optional seats. | |||
These versatile [[Valves]] are designed for a wide range of gravity flow applications. All share the same one-piece cast housings and heavy duty components that ensure reliable low maintenance operation for many years. Slides are sealed internally by a replaceable polyurethane or steel wiper ring. The end of the slide plate is sealed with an adjustable packing gland. Between the two seals is a wiper blade that ensures long seal life. Both the inlet and outlet [[Flanges]] are drilled and tapped with identical patterns to simplify installation. A range of [[Actuators]] are available to accommodate most applications. | |||
