Series 4100 Knife Gate Valves
Features:
- 304, 316, 317 or WCB solid cast
- One-piece Knife Gate Valve body designed
- Qalified through FEA analysis to meet thepressure rating and shell testrequirements of MSS SP-81
- Face-to-face per MSS SP-81 through 36"
- Precision machined seat with multiple gate guides provides tight one-way shut-off.
- Gate edge is beveled for easier packing seal and longer packing life.
- Meets MSS SP-81 shutoff requirement of 40 cc per inch per minute at 40 psi (water test).
- Port diameter exceeds requirements of MSS SP-81
- Equal to SCH 40 pipe through full size range.
Series 4200 Knife Gate Valves
Features:
- Two-way ZERO LEAKAGE shut-off from full vacuum to the rated pressure of 150 psi (water test).
- True bidirectional flow and shut-off, can be installed in either direction.
- Larger flow area, minimum pressure drop.
- Pressure against the gate is not required to achieve a seal.
- Unsurpassed low-pressure Knife Gate Valve seal.
- Mechanically retained seat prevents pullout*.
- Knife Gate Valve Seat is field replaceable.
- 316 solid cast stainless steel body.
- MSS face-to-face.
- Cast SuperYoke features: Top removal stem nut, Standard open and closed lockout positions
- Heavy cross section I-beam legs
Series 4300 Cylinder Knife Gate Valves
Features:
- The carboxilated nitrile with Teflon® compound rod seal is self-lubricating and durable. The rounded lip design ensures proper sealing and long Knife Gate life.
- The standard rod wiper construction is a highly durable polyurethane.
- High strength steel (100,000 psi minimum yield) piston rod has a ground, polished, and chrome plated surface. This surface provides maximum life for both the rod bushing and the seals.
- The bushing retainer allows cartridge removal (cylinder repair) without complete disassembly.
- The tie rods are 100,000 psi minimum yield steel for maximum holding power. The threads are roll formed for superior strength and engagement.
- The piston seal is a carboxilated nitrile with Teflon® compound making it self-lubricating. The “T” seal with back-up ring construction prevents rolling and seals at all pressures.
Series 4400 Pneumatic Cylinder Knife Gate Valves
Features:
- Self-supporting yoke (2” - 12”)
- ANSI Class 150 Pressure-Temperature Rating
- Standard MSS-SP81 Face-to-Face.
- Standard valves are suitable for bi-directional deadend service at the full pressure-temperature rating of the Knife Gate valve.
- Robust Full Face Flange.
- Reliable body joint eliminates the possibility of body joint leakage caused by pipe stresses.
- Options to mate with a variety of ANSI flanges, as well as with DIN flanges and custom bolt patterns.
- Knife Gate Guides guarantee that the gate is properly positioned and supported during operation. The gate guides do not reduce the flow area.
- Dual scraper blades clean gate during operation and protect the seals from abrasives.
- Universal Yoke allows easy conversion from handwheel to cylinder operated and vice versa.
- A taper is added to the body’s internal diameter to eliminate the possibility of material collecting at the bottom of the port and preventing proper closure. The taper ensures automatic “clean-out” and “flushing”
