Slide Gate Valve

Slide Gate Valve

This type of slide gate valve (knife valve, gate valve) is usually installed at the outlet of silos, loading bellows, hoppers, bunkers, mechanical conveyors or similar gravity-powered discharge/exit points. A gate that moves parallel to the ground inside cuts off or opens the flow.
Working Principle:

Slide valves are used to control the flow of free-flowing bulk materials under the influence of gravity. They are also called slide valves, although they have different application features. The valve plate located in the valve body allows the material flow to be completely released, released to a certain extent, or completely cut off. Slide valves connected to systems such as storage silos, bunkers, chutes and conveyor systems regulate the flow of free-flowing raw materials. Slide valves installed on pneumatic conveying lines regulate the flow of pressurized or vacuumed materials and ensure their sealing.
