Gate Valve

A Gate Valve, is a valve that opens by lifting a round or rectangular gate/wedge out of the path of the fluid.Design Features: Designed for high pressure and high temperature applications, for a wide range of fluids except slurries and viscous fluids. These valves are generally used in the wide open or closed position, are not recommended for throttling service because throttling causes disc chattering and vibration which is likely to erode the seating surface and cause leakage.
