Gate valve manufacturers in Germany

 

Valvesonly Europe is one of the best Gate Valve Manufacturers in Germany. Gate valves play a crucial role in controlling the flow of fluids in various applications. These valves are known for their robust construction and reliable performance.

What is a Gate Valve?

A gate valve is a type of valve used to regulate the flow of fluid through a pipeline. It operates by raising or lowering a gate or wedge-shaped obstruction to either allow or block the flow of fluid. Gate valves are commonly used in systems where straight-line flow and minimal pressure drop are desired.

Working of Gate Valve:

The working principle of a gate valve is relatively simple yet effective. When the valve is open, the gate is lifted to allow the fluid to pass through freely. Conversely, when the valve is closed, the gate is lowered to obstruct the flow completely. This on-off functionality makes gate valves ideal for applications where tight shut-off is essential.

Function of the Stem on a Gate Valve:

The stem on a gate valve serves a crucial function in its operation. It is responsible for raising and lowering the gate to control the flow of fluid. When the handwheel or actuator attached to the stem is turned, it transfers the motion to the stem, causing the gate to move accordingly. Thus, the stem acts as a mechanical linkage between the operator and the gate, enabling precise control over the flow.

Gate valve types:

·       Rising Stem Gate Valve                                                              

·       Non Rising Stem Gate Valve

·       Bellow Seal Gate Valve

·       Pressure Seal Gate Valve

·       Cryogenic Gate Valve

·       Forged Gate Valve

Gate Valve Diagram and Parts:

A typical gate valve consists of several essential components:

·       Body: The main outer casing of the valve.

·       Bonnet: Encloses the valve internals and provides a connection point for the stem.

·       Gate: The obstruction that either allows or blocks the flow of fluid.

·       Stem: Transfers motion from the operator to the gate.

·       Seat: Provides a sealing surface for the gate to achieve a tight shut-off.

·       Wedge: The portion of the gate that meets the seat.

·       Handwheel or Actuator: Used to operate the valve manually or automatically.

·       Stem Nut: Secures the stem and provides a means for transferring rotational motion.

Gate Valve Operation:

The operation of a gate valve involves the following steps:

·       Open Position: The handwheel or actuator is turned counterclockwise, lifting the gate to allow fluid flow.

·       Closed Position: The handwheel or actuator is turned clockwise, lowering the gate to block the flow of fluid completely.

·       Intermediate Positions: Gate valves can also be partially opened or closed to regulate the flow as needed.

Gate valve Industries:

·       Textiles.

·       Power generation.

·       Refineries.

·       Petrochemical plants.

·       Shipbuilding

·       Chemical industry.

·       Paper factories.

Double Offset Butterfly Valve Manufacturers

 

Valvesonly Europe is your premier Double Offset Butterfly Valve manufacturers Germany and Italy. Double offset butterfly valve is a type  of butterfly valve used in high perfromance applications. The double offset design of a double offset butterfly valve allows the disc to move away from the seat via action mechanism, hence the name. A double offset butterfly valve is a type of quarter-turn valve used to control the flow of fluids in pipelines. It earns its name from its unique design, featuring two offsets:

l  The first offset involves the shaft positioned behind the valve disc.

l  The second offset slightly shifts the shaft position behind the valve disc in relation to the pipe centerline.

 

This dual offset configuration enables the valve disc to move in a cam-like motion when opening or closing, minimizing friction between the disc and the seat. As a result, the valve provides a tight seal with reduced wear and tear, allowing it to operate effectively even in high-pressure or high-temperature applications.

 

Difference between Double Offset and Triple Offset Butterfly valve?

The primary differences between double offset and triple offset butterfly valves lie in their design complexity and sealing mechanisms:

 

1.       Number of Offsets: Double offset butterfly valves have two offsetswhile .

2.       Triple offset butterfly valves have three offsets: the first two offsets are similar to those in double offset valves, while the third offset involves an asymmetrical shape in the sealing mechanism

3.       In double offset butterfly valves, the sealing mechanism is primarily achieved through a combination of the offset design and the interference fit between the disc and the seat. Whereas in Triple offset butterfly valves utilize a laminated or metal-to-metal sealing mechanism in addition to the offset design.

4.       Double offset butterfly valves are suitable for a wide range of applications where reliable sealing and moderate operating conditions are required. Triple offset butterfly valves are typically used in demanding applications where tight shut-off, high-pressure, high-temperature, or corrosive conditions are present, such as in oil and gas, petrochemical, and refining industries.

Electric Actuated Gate Valve manufacturer in Italy

 

Valvesonly Europe is one of the trusted electric actuated gate valve manufacturer in Italy. Electric actuated gate valves is a type of valve  which is controlled by an electric actuator to open or close the gate, allowing or blocking fluid flow in the industry process.

 

What does an electric actuated means?

“Electric actuated" means a device that is powered by electricity to perform an  function. In this context of gate valves, being "electric actuated" means that the valve is operated or controlled using an electrically powered actuator. This actuator receives electrical signals or power to move the valve's component thereby allowing valve to function.

 

How does it work?

The valve operated with the help of the actuator,  which moves a gate inside the valve to regulate fluid flow. The actuator raises or lowers the gate by turning internal gears in response to an electrical signal. When the gate is lowered, the valve is closed and no fluid may pass through. When the gate is raised, the valve is opened and fluid can pass through. These valves are frequently accompanied by sensors that offer input on the position of the valve, guaranteeing precise functioning and flow control.

 

Application of electric actuated gate valve:

 

1.       These valve are used in main water lines to manage water flow to different areas.

2.       They are used in chemical plants to manage the flow of various chemicals, including aggressive ones.

3.       Marine Industry.

4.       In mining industries they help in controlling slurry movement.

5.       Found in power generation plants, aiding in the management of water, steam, and other fluid flows.

6.       Their common use is widely seen in large-scale irrigation projects to distribute water to agricultural fields efficiently.

7.       Very integral to wastewater treatment processes, controlling sewage and treated water flows.

8.       In HVAC systems, they help control the flow of chilled or hot water and steam for temperature regulation.
