Stainless Steel Soft Seated Valves manufacturer in India

Soft seated Gate Valve is made from ductile iron and is used in mainly water supply lines. The material is soft and can be used with ease with the pipelines. There are different types that are used in different industrial applications. The material is mostly GGG40 or GGG50 with flat body. The soft seated knife gate valve is used with waste water management systems. The knife shape is useful to cut through the high viscosity waste water during faster flows. There are also EPDM covered soft seat wedge gate valve types. These are used in drinking water applications as well. The valves come in different dimensions and sizes. The pressure numbers range as PN10 or PN16 for these valves in the water pipe lines. There are different types of body bonnet such as ductile iron, 500-15 and EN-GJS-400.

The wedge can also be ductile iron, EPDM covered and other types. The handwheel of the Resilient Soft Seated Gate Valves can differ as cast iron GG25, EN-GJL-250 and so on. The stem of the valve can be stainless steel X20 X13 and the stem seat is an O-ring. The soft seated gate valve dimensions range differently based on the applications as well with the DN numbers ranging from 40 to 600 with diameters ranging from 150mm to 840mm. The weight of the valves vary from 8kg to 600kg depending on the size of the valve. The length and height of the valves also vary. The nominal pressure for these valves is 16 bars.

Features of Resilient Soft Seated Gate Valves

  • Zero Leakage even at high pressure with double sealing of soft seat and metal seat
  • Applies to all fluid lines including pure water, a mixture of sludge and water
  • Leakage protection is possible at all times as there is no foreign substances buildup on the bottom of the valve port.
  • Price is competitive as material requirements are low with narrow interfacial structure, and it is easy to install even in a narrow space. Reduced packaging and shipping costs due to its light weight.
  • Advantageous in cost reduction as it is possible to operate with a small driving force, so that a smaller specification actuator can be applied.
  • Reduced repair costs as valve seat, soft seat, can be removed and attached

Advantages of Soft seated Gate Valves

  • Metal seats can stand up to extreme flashing
  • high temperatures up to and exceeding 1,000° F
  • ideal for high erosion or corrosion applications

Disadvantages of soft seated knife gate valve

  • High production cost
  • If need replace the valve seat, normally required for overall grinding, the field maintainment is not convenient.

Application of soft seat wedge gate valve

  • natural gas industry
  • chemical storage
  • slurries
  • normal liquid and gases
