FlowBiz Gate Valves: The Peak of Straight-Line Flow
A gate valve is the "workhorse" of isolation. Its primary advantage is providing an unobstructed flow path, making it the ideal choice for applications where turbulence and pressure loss must be avoided.
How the FlowBiz Gate Valve Works
The valve operates by moving a wedge-shaped disc perpendicular to the fluid flow.
- Fully Open: The wedge is retracted entirely into the valve bonnet, leaving the bore completely clear. This results in a pressure drop that is virtually identical to that of a straight pipe of the same length.
- Fully Closed: The wedge is forced into the body seats, providing a tight, metal-to-metal or resilient seal that stops flow even at high pressures.
Key Engineering Advantages
- Zero Flow Restriction: The "Full Bore" design ensures the lowest possible flow resistance.
- Bi-Directional Sealing: FlowBiz gate valves provide a bubble-tight seal regardless of the direction of the fluid.
- OS&Y Design: Our Outside Screw and Yoke (OS&Y) construction keeps the stem threads outside the media, protecting them from corrosion and allowing for easy lubrication.
- Sturdy Wedge Construction: Available in Solid, Flexible, or Split wedge designs to prevent "thermal binding" in high-temperature steam applications.
