Metal Seated Gate Valve

Metal Seated Gate Valve

A versatile valve used across a wide range of industries, the knife gate valve offers unique construction and functionality, making it suitable for situations where other valves would not suffice.

Notably, the knife gate valve features a blade-like design with a sharp metallic edge that efficiently cuts through materials it encounters, making it ideal for fluid or gas cutoff in diverse pipelines and industrial processes.

This valve finds common usage in industrial applications requiring precise pressure maintenance, like water and steam systems, sewage networks and plants and other fluid flow control scenarios.

Available in different sizes and materials, selecting the appropriate knife gate valve is crucial for its intended application.

Knife gate valves boast numerous advantages, including ease of use, reliability, and cost efficiency. Their stainless steel composition minimises corrosion damage, resulting in robust, reliable performance and not requiring frequent maintenance.

Laminar specialises in supplying knife gate valves for a wide variety of applications, including sludge and wastewater treatment plants, biogas substrate applications, and process technology. These valves deliver exceptional control over non-flammable viscous fluids with sludge or solids.

One noteworthy feature is that the knife gate valve seals are designed for flow in both directions, enhancing flexibility. With modular designs and actuator options, Laminar offers diverse products tailored to meet clients’ specific demands. Laminar offers three actuator options for knife gate valves; electrical, pneumatic (for quick opening and closing) as well as hydraulic actuators for marine and hazardous areas.
