Working of Knife Edge Gate Valve

These valves have the ability to cut through solids-filled media. They operate by elevating a circular or rectangular gate out of the media's path. Knife edge gate valves are frequently employed when a straight-line fluid flow with minimal restriction is required. The sealing surfaces between the gate and seats are flat. These valves were created with the pulp and paper industry in mind. Stringy pulp impinged between the wedge and seat of a standard gate valve, blocking flow shut-off. Knife edge gate valves allow thick media to flow freely over soft seals without causing any obstruction. The material is chopped up as it passes through the valve, which is how they work. Knife edge gate valves are now employed in a variety of processing plants across the world and available in a variety of sizes.

Knife Edge Gate Valve Application

Sludge and slurry applications benefit from knife edge gate valves because their blades quickly cut through heavy liquids. Knife gate valves are typically specified in higher sizes to handle thick flows of heavy oils, light grease, slurry, paper pulp, varnish, and wastewater, to name a few. Low-pressure knife edge gate valves are designed to seat the blade into a soft seal with minimal disruption.

Advantages of Knife Edge Gate Valve

• Allow free passage of the medium
• Operates effectively in difficult situations
• Sealing elastomer cartridge seats that can be replaced
• Tight shut-off
• No leakage
• Useful with high-density fluids
• Harsh applications that work
• Valve dismantling is not required for seat replacement
• Applicable in high temperatures
• Effective for corrosive application

Difference Between Knife Edge Gate Valve & Gate Valve

The knife edge gate valve frequently includes a sharpened disc to effectively cut through slurry/viscous material, which is one of the major differences between the gate and knife edge gate valve. In addition, compared to a gate valve, which is dimensionally broader, the knife edge gate valve has a shorter face length. As a result, as compared to a gate valve, a knife gate valve is much lighter. These are the primary differences, as well as two of the most significant advantages of Knife Edge Gate Valve. Knife edge gate valves are used in sewage treatment plants, chemical, mining, cement plants, and a variety of other industrial applications, whereas gate valves are used in drinking water mains, distribution networks, and pump stations.
