Automatic Gate Valve

Gate valves have a bonnet for a leak proof seal usually a screw in union or bolted type.

Automatic gate valve.

The stem may be classified as rising or non rising depending on which end is threaded. Valves may also be automatic driven by changes in pressure temperature or flow. These changes may act upon a diaphragm or a piston which in turn activates the valve. Gate valves are typically opened and closed using a wheel shaped twist handle with either a rising or a non rising stem or by a plunger.

Gate valves with actuators use a threaded stem to connect the actuator to the gate via a drive nut around the threads allowing the nut to be turned with a hand wheel or motor. Pvc gate valves socket.

Pvc gate valves slip designed for quick shutoff in low pressure or vacuum lines these quick opening valves provide unrestricted flow for low pressure tank and drain applications with liquids gases dry bulk solids and slurry.

Also known as 3 3 valves these valves close all ports in the off position to stop equipment in a locked position with air pressure holding it in place. They can be disassembled for in line servicing.
