Mainly used in power plants involving fossil fuels, coal, gases, nuclear and thermal power, boilers, steam stations, etc. as flow isolation valves.
Designed to leverage the ability to use pipeline fluid pressure to enhance sealing action with a pre-loaded graphite or metal gasket strategically placed between the body and hood.
Designed in accordance with ASME B16.34.
ASME Classes 600, 900, 1500, and 2500
GATE VALVE PRESSURE SEAL
Non-continuous full port with low resistance to flow.
Pressure seal hood design.
Since high temperatures are usually involved, graphite gaskets are generally used.
Silver plated mild steel hood to body seal gasket for tightness.
Cast iron refurbishing qualified in accordance with ASME B16.34 radiographic requirements
