What is the difference between an elastic gate valve and a rigid gate?
One is cast iron, intermediate rubber gate, one is cast steel, and the other is steel flashboard,
General rigid gate used in the temperature is not too high, the pressure is not too large occasions, flexible gate used in high temperature, high pressure, or relatively high sealing requirements.Valve closed, the sealing surface can only rely on medium pressure to seal, that is to rely on medium pressure to the gate sealing surface pressure to the other side of the seat to ensure the sealing surface seal, which is self sealing. Most of the valve is forced seal, that is, when the valve closes, to rely on external force to force the gate to the seat, in order to ensure the sealing surface sealing.
Brief introduction: the valve gate valve is a gate opening and closing parts, RAM direction of motion perpendicular to the direction of the fluid, valve can only be fully open and fully closed, can not be adjusted and the throttle. Gate has two sealing surface, the most commonly used mode gate valve of the two sealing surface to form a wedge, wedge angle with valve parameters vary, usually 50, medium temperature is not high when 2 degrees 52'.Wedge gate valve can be made into a whole, called the rigid gate; can also be made to produce micro deformation of ram, in order to improve its process of deviation, make up the sealing surface angle in the process, the gate is called the flexible gate.
