Resilient Seated Gate Valve
Resilient Seated Gate Valve
The Resilient Seated Gate Valve is a type of shut-off valve widely used in water supply systems, wastewater treatment plants, and irrigation networks. Unlike traditional metal-seated valves, this valve features a flexible rubber-coated wedge (usually EPDM or NBR) that ensures a bubble-tight seal even in low-pressure applications. The resilient seat helps absorb impurities and minor deformations in the pipeline, enhancing sealing performance and preventing leakage. It is a preferred choice for systems requiring reliable isolation and minimal flow resistance.
This valve's simple yet robust design allows for easy operation, low maintenance, and long service life. It is corrosion-resistant, often with a fusion-bonded epoxy-coated body, making it ideal for buried or submerged applications. Operated via a handwheel, gearbox, or actuator, the Resilient Seated Gate Valve is suitable for both manual and automated control. Its design also complies with international standards such as BS, DIN, and AWWA, ensuring compatibility across diverse pipeline systems.
