Gate Valve UAE

A gate valve/Sluice Valve/Knife Valve is a valve used for lifting and closing water from the pipe. It is used to allow the flow of water and to stop it without any obstacle.

Functions of Gate Valve

Gate Valve is used to manage the flow of liquids and gases in a pipeline. When the valve is open, it allows the liquids to flow through them. The gate valve contains a tight valve restricting any sort of leakage. It stops the flow to prevent excessive fluid. It is generally balanced using a handwheel. Gate valves should not be used frequently due to the high pressure since it may lead to shorter life expectancy.

Installation of Gate Valve

Gate Valves must be properly installed to increase their life duration. Some of the guidelines to be followed while installing Gate valves are;

• Inspect the materials of the valve to make sure no defects are seen before the process of installation.
• The flange should be kept at room temperature.
• During installation, the proper amount of space should be provided.
• Welding work should be completed before the beginning of installation.
• Waste materials from the pipe should be removed
• The valve and the flange should be in proper alignment and the weight of the valve must also be ensured.
• The pressure of the bolts which connect the valve should be equal. The Gate valve should be tested after bolting.

Gate Valve Applications

Gate valves are used in a variety of industries such as oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing and automation.

Globe Valve

Globe Valve is a valve which is shaped in the size of a globe. The main features of Globe valve are to Start, Stop and Regulate. The flow of the fluid is linear. The rising stem on the top of the globe valve indicates the position of the valve.

Solid Wedge Gate Valve

A solid Wedge Gate Valve is a type of value which is used for a range of applications such as producing steam, hot/cold water, oil and gas. The markings and size of the Solid Wedge Gate can be 200 PSI. The solid valve should be used fully or stopped fully as it enhances high velocity.

8-inch Gate Valve Prices

The cost of 8 inch Gate Valve ranges from 500 to 5000 AED

8 Gate Valve Dimensions

Gate valve is available in a wide range of sizes and dimensions which are;

• Nominal Pipe Size It is a set of standard sizes ranging from the smallest 1/2 inch to larger sizes of 48 inches.


• Dimensions of Flanges Flanges are determined by the class and size of the valve. Some of the different standard classes range between class 150 to class 2500 which consists of pressure inside the valve depending on the classes.


• Pressure Class The thickness of the bonnet and valve size is determined by the different pressures of classes such as class 150, class 300 and class 600.
  

Sluice valve Specification

Sluice Valve also known as Gate Valve consists of a sliding gate or wedge to allow or stop the flow of liquids. Some of the key materials used for designing sluice valves are ductile steel, cast steel, stainless steel and other elements.

Knife gate Valves

Knife Gate Valve consist of a sharp edge used for managing slurries, fluids and materials that get clogged. It is mostly used for wastewater applications. It is acid-proof and avoids any sort of damage and corrosion. It consists of a tight sealing which prevents leakages.

Gate Valves vs Butterfly Valves

Gate valves and Butterfly valve is chosen based on the specifications and features of each valve. The gate valve contains a wedge which allows the flow of fluid fully or closes it whereas the butterfly valve consists of a disc that rotates the shaft, controlling the flow of liquids. Gate valves are not usable for throttling and controlling the flow of liquids whereas a Butterfly valve is an accurate valve to regulate the flow. Gate valves are used more for industrial pipelines such as oil, gas and water on the other hand Butterfly valve is used for chemical processing, water treatment and HVAC.
