Square Knife Gate Valve
MVS Square knife gate valve are designed for lines with square and rectangular shapes. Rectangular Port knife gate valves are mainly used for discharging bins, tanks. Under hoppers for the storage of solids products and for highly charged fluids. The design of the valve improve the discharge and avoid the obstruction of the product.
Square port body knife gate valve design for higher flow capacity and minimal pressure drop. Internal design avoids any build up of solids that would prevent valve from closing. Internal gate wedges and guides for tighter shut off.
Square Knife Gate Valve is a fabricated square or rectangular port low-pressure valve for fluids with :
High solids concentration or solids,
Mainly used in bulk handling
Silo outlet applications in industries such as Chemical Plants, Power Plants, Food and Beverage, Wastewater Treatment Plants, Mining , Etc.

DESCRIPTION :
BODY :
Unidirectional fabricated type knife gate valve
Cast mono block design.
Internal cast gate wedges and guides allow for tighter shut off.
Square port design for greater flow capacity and minimal pressure drop.
Internal design avoids any build up of solids that would prevent valve from closing.
GATE:
Standard stainless steel gate.
Polished gate on both sides for a greater seal between the packing and the seat.
Bottom of the gate edge bottom is machined to a bevel to shear off the solids during the final closing stage.
PACKING CHAMBER :
Several lines of braided fiber plus an EPDM O-ring for long life, with an easy access packing gland ensuring a tight seal.
Long-life braided packing is available in a wide range of materials.
STEM :
Rising & non-rising stem configurations available
The standard stainless steel stem offers a long corrosion resistant life.
A standard nipple fitted on the hand wheel to lubricate the stem whilst operating the valve
For rising stem hand wheel, a stem protector provides additional protection against dust while the valve is in the open position.
YOKE & SUPPORT PLATES :
EPOXY coated steel (stainless steel available on request).
Compact design makes it robust even in the most severe conditions.
Reinforced design is standard starting from size 14’’ x 14’’.
Manual (hand wheel and bevel gear),
hydraulic, pneumatic (double-acting cylinder)
electric actuation options available
