Knife Gate Valve has wide range of application as a shut-off valve in pipelines and hoppers. It is perhaps the only valve, which can be used in hopper isolation. The beveled gate cuts through the fluid by dislodging any material in the seating area. In a highly abrasive application deflector cone is used to prevent the body from direct impingement or abrasive media.
The Knife Gate Valves find application in industries such as Pulp Ex paper, Cement, Aluminium, Carbon Black, Fertilizer, Sugar, Coal Ft Mining, Power Generation, Ash Handling, Iron Et Steel, Sewage & Waste Water Treatment, Food and beverage etc.
