Brass Gate Valve
A Brass Gate Valve is a type of valve that uses a gate or wedge to control the flow of fluids, typically liquids or gases, in a piping system. The valve body and components are made of brass, a copper-zinc alloy known for its corrosion resistance, durability, and excellent mechanical properties. It can be a manual or automated valve that regulates the flow of fluids by lifting or lowering a gate or wedge within the valve body.
Key Features
- Available in BSP Thread – sizes: 1/4″ to 4″.
- Brass body with PTFE seals.
- Temperature range: -20°C to 120°C (subject to configuration).
- Pressure rating: PN20 (BSP) and Class 150 (NPT).
- Control Flow: Regulate the flow of fluids in a piping system.
- Shut Off: Completely shut off the flow of fluids when required.
- Throttle Flow: Partially restrict the flow of fluids to control pressure, temperature, or flow rate.
Description
Characteristics:
Brass Gate Valves are known for their:
1. Corrosion Resistance: Brass construction provides excellent resistance to corrosion from various fluids.
2. Durability: Brass Gate Valves are durable and can withstand harsh operating conditions.
3. Low Friction: The gate or wedge design provides low friction and smooth operation.
4. High Pressure Rating: Brass Gate Valves can handle high pressure ratings, making them suitable for various industrial applications.
Applications:
Brass Gate Valves are commonly used in:
1. Plumbing Systems: Residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing systems.
2. Industrial Processes: Chemical processing, oil and gas, power generation, and other industrial processes.
3. Water Treatment: Water treatment plants, wastewater treatment plants, and other water management systems.
4. HVAC Systems: Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.
Types:
Brass Gate Valves come in various types, including:
1. Rising Stem Gate Valve: The stem rises when the valve is opened.
2. Non-Rising Stem Gate Valve: The stem does not rise when the valve is opened.
3. Threaded Gate Valve: The valve has threaded connections for easy installation.
4. Flanged Gate Valve: The valve has flanged connections for high-pressure applications.
5. Actuated Gate Valve: The valve is automated with an actuator for remote control.
