There are no translations available. Uni-directional knife gate valves with suitable packing and materials of construction are widely used to handle high temperature contaminated media. The simple design of the valve, with the gate held in place by a set of packing, allows it to handle temperature fluctuations (and consequent expansion/contractions and resultant warping) much better than most other valves designs. In view of this advantage, knife gate valves are widely used in carbon blank plants handling dirty gases at over 550 deg C as also as boiler bed ash valves where with suitable metallurgy, they handle media around 800 deg C |
