Through Conduit Expanding Gate Valve, A216 WCB, 18 IN, CL600

Product Name: Through Conduit Expanding Gate Valve
Features: Full Port, Rising Stem, OS&Y, DBB
Design Standard: API 6D
Body Material: ASTM A216 WCB
Size: 18 Inch, DN450
Pressure: Class 600 LB, PN100
End Connection: Flanged

Slab Through Conduit Gate Valves are designed with a full-bore port, rising stem OS&Y, and pressure-energized floating seats and gate, ensuring a bubble-tight shutoff both upstream and downstream, even under low and high differential pressures. The valve features double block and bleed capability, along with automatic relief of excess body pressure, as standard. The smooth, continuous bore minimizes turbulence and, when fully open, provides a pressure drop equivalent to a section of pipe of the same length and diameter. With the seat faces located outside the flow stream, they are protected from erosive flow action. Additionally, pigs and scrapers can be safely run through the valve without causing damage.

Product Features

» The valve seat features an O-ring seal and a floating valve seat structure with pre-tension force, enabling bidirectional sealing of the inlet and outlet. This structure reduces the opening and closing torque to half that of conventional valves, allowing for easier operation.
» When fully open, the valve provides a smooth, straight-line channel with minimal flow resistance and no pressure loss, and can be cleaned by passing a rough ball through the pipeline.
» The packing structure has self-sealing capabilities, requiring minimal adjustment. The valve operates with lightweight opening and closing, ensuring reliable sealing performance. The packing box is equipped with an auxiliary sealing grease injection system, guaranteeing zero leakage and resolving common leakage issues at the packing.
» When closed, the flat gate valve automatically releases high pressure within the chamber, ensuring safe operation.
» The fully enclosed structure provides excellent protection and adaptability to all-weather conditions.
