Pneumatic Actuated Knife Gate Valve

ValvesOnly Europe is the top Pneumatic Actuated Knife Gate Valve Manufacturer in Germany and Italy. Pneumatic knife gate valves are pneumatically operated valves that are usually used to stop fluid flow. Generally speaking, its design consists of a valve body and a blade, also called a knife. Usually flat, the blade is positioned inside the flowing channel. The blade can be moved along the direction of fluid flow by means of a pneumatic mechanism, so enabling the opening or closure of the fluid route.

Working:
In order to start or halt fluid flow, a pneumatic actuator is used to control the movement of a gate within the valve body. This is how a pneumatic knife gate valve works. The actuator moves the gate up or down by converting the air pressure into mechanical force in response to an air signal. When the gate is lowered, it cuts through the fluid and takes a seat, forming a tight seal that stops the flow. When the gate is raised, fluid can pass through it without restriction. The gate’s sharp edge effectively cuts through slurries and viscous fluids, guaranteeing dependable operation in challenging circumstances.
