Valve Redesign Offers Safety, Less Leaks


Flowrox announced a new design for the Slurry Knife Gate that eliminates the valve’s cylinder tower and instead puts two actuator cylinders on each side of the valve. With the new design, the valve’s body is now cast in one piece. Without the tower, which can have a high center of gravity, the valve is easier to handle, more stable during assembly, easier to access for maintenance, and safer, the company reported.

With the actuator cylinders, all maintenance access points are less than 2 m from the ground, making them more easily accessible. Compare that to 3 m to 4m above the ground, as was the case with the old design. With the new valve body, there are less chances for leaking, and there is reduced bolting during maintenance, Flowrox reported.
