4 inch (DN100) ss flanged gate valve is a crucial component in industrial fluid control systems, specifically designed for applications in water lines, water pumps, and water tanks. Constructed from durable stainless steel, it ensures resilience against corrosion and wear, making it suitable for diverse environments. The 100mm high pressure gate valve features an OS&Y (Outside Screw and Yoke) design, allowing easy identification of its position and enhancing its reliability.
Tips: How does a flanged gate valve work?
A flanged gate valve is a type of linear motion valve used to control the flow of fluids in pipelines. It consists of a flat gate with a seating surface that moves perpendicular to the direction of flow. The gate is attached to a stem, which is operated by a wheel-like handwheel or actuator. In the closed position, the gate seals against the valve seat, preventing fluid passage. To open the valve, the handwheel is turned, lifting the gate and allowing fluid to flow through the open space. Flanged connections on the valve body facilitate easy installation and removal. This design is ideal for applications where a straight-line flow with minimal pressure drop is required. Flanged gate valves are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, water treatment, and manufacturing.
