Applications

Knife gate valves are generally used for the circulation of media such as paper pulp, coal ash, chemical materials, sewage, and foodstuffs. ATO knife gate valve has the remarkable advantages of light switch, good sealing, good elastic memory, and long service life. It can be widely used in water, sewage, construction, petroleum, chemical, food, medicine, light textile, electric power, ship metallurgy, energy system and another body pipeline as a regulating and intercepting device.

Tips: How does a pneumatic gate valve work?

A pneumatic gate valve is a type of valve that uses compressed air to control the flow of fluid. The valve consists of a gate, which is mounted on a stem, and a body that houses the mechanism for controlling the flow of fluid. The gate is designed to move vertically up and down, opening or closing the valve.

When compressed air is supplied to the valve, it acts on a piston inside the body, causing it to move and open or close the gate. The movement of the gate is controlled by the air pressure, which can be adjusted to control the flow of fluid. When the air pressure is increased, the gate opens more, allowing more fluid to flow through the valve. Conversely, when the air pressure is decreased, the gate closes more, reducing the flow of fluid.

The pneumatic gate valve is often used in high-pressure systems, such as oil and gas pipelines, where the flow of fluid needs to be controlled quickly and accurately. The valve's quick response time and precise control make it an ideal choice for these applications. Additionally, pneumatic gate valves are easy to maintain and repair, as they are designed to be disassembled and reassembled without the need for special tools.
