Uni-directional knife gate valve, type EX

Unidirectional Knife Gate Valve Type EX:

Reliability and Monolithic StrengthThe unidirectional knife gate valve type EX from Orbinox is a high-quality valve designed for dependable flow shut-off in demanding industrial environments. Unlike many other manufacturers, the valve body features a solid, monolithic cast construction rather than being assembled from multiple parts. This ensures exceptional durability, leak-tightness, and resistance to deformation, even under intense operational conditions. The EX valve is ideal for handling liquids, slurries, abrasive, and bulk materials in industries such as pulp and paper, mining, chemical, food processing, and wastewater treatment.Key Features of the EX Knife Gate Valve:

  • Sizes and Pressure: Available in sizes from DN 50 to DN 1200 mm, with a working pressure of up to 10 bar (DN 50–600 mm) or 6 bar (DN 700–1200 mm).

  • Body Materials: Cast iron, stainless steel, or carbon steel with a monolithic cast body for enhanced longevity.

  • Seals: EPDM, Viton, or PTFE for reliable sealing in various media.

  • Actuation: Manual (handwheel), pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic for convenient operation.

  • Clog-Free Design: Unidirectional sealing and a knife gate mechanism ensure smooth operation with viscous and abrasive media.

Advantages of the Monolithic Body:

The solid, one-piece cast body from Orbinox minimizes the risk of leaks, enhances corrosion resistance, and extends the valve’s service life. This makes it an ideal choice for challenging operational conditions.

Applications:

  • Pulp and Paper Industry: For fibrous slurries.

  • Mining Industry: For transporting slurries and abrasive materials.

  • Wastewater Treatment: For regulating wastewater flows.

  • Food Processing: For handling liquids and bulk products.
