PRODUCT FEATURES

Our Technequip knife gate valve line offers advanced standard features!

The TGW is our Wafer Style Slurry Knife Gate Valve designed specifically for lighter duty in abrasive applications. It features a full-port, open-body design, which allows the gate to create a path for solids to exit through the bottom of the valve as it passes between the elastomer sleeves reducing the possibility of jamming. The sleeves compress to provide a 100% bubble-tight seal, resulting in zero downstream leakage when the valve is in the fully open or the fully closed position.

Flush ports

We have added flush ports to the valve housing to assist in keeping the housing area free of build-up.

Wiper / Secondary seal

A newly designed wiper assembly completely surrounds the gate assisting in redirecting the solids out the bottom cavity of the housing during actuation.  For easy maintenance, the wiper blade is field-replaceable without removing the valve from its installed location.

Grease Ports

The grease ports have been strategically positioned to aide in easy grease distribution.
