slurry knife gate valves
Isolate the flow in demanding conditions
Heavy duty slurry knife gate valve isolates flow even in the most demanding process conditions. The bi-directional flow tolerates backflow and elastomer sleeves on both sides of the gate provide tight shut off. Flowrox™ knife gate valve follows the concept of the ease of maintenance. The valve body is cast in one piece which eliminates the need for sealing between the body halves. Load distribution ring is integrated into the valve sleeves. The valve contains only two service parts; ring sleeves and secondary seal.
Benefits and features
Bi-directional flow
Bi-directional flow tolerates backflow. 100% isolation.
Free flow
Full bore enables free flow of process medium.
Wear resistant
Only the ring sleeves in contact with the process medium.
Simple to install and service
Face-to-face according to industry standards. Contains only two service parts; ring sleeves and gland packing.
No over compression during installation
Integrated load distribution ring. (SKF, SKW) Steel retaining flange is supporting the ring sleeve (SKH)
Slurry wafer knife gate valve (SKW)
Slurry wafer knife gate valve (SKW) is designed for heavy duty purposes to isolate flow, even in the most demanding process conditions. The complete valve is built around an ease of maintenance concept and it contains only two service parts: ring sleeves and secondary seal.
Improved performance – Integrated load distribution ring
Ease of maintenance – Universal tower design
Simple installation – One peace body with lockout pins
Typical installations:
Tailings slurry lines
Slurry pump isolation
Thickener feed and discharge lines
Flotation isolation
The SKW valves are available in sizes DN50–600.
Slurry flanged knife gate valve (SKF)
Slurry flanged knife gate valves (SKF) are equipped with flanges. They isolate the flow even in the most demanding process conditions. They contain only two service parts: ring sleeves and a secondary seal.
Improved performance – Integrated load distribution ring
Ease of maintenance – Universal tower design
Simple installation – One piece body with lockout pins
Typical installations:
Tailings slurry lines
Slurry pump isolation
