The ANSI Cast Iron Non-Rising Stem Gate Valve is a compact, robust isolation valve designed for industrial piping systems where vertical space is limited. Manufactured in accordance with MSS SP-70 and ANSI standards, it features a durable cast iron body (ASTM A126 Class B) and a non-rising stem mechanism. This design ensures the valve height remains constant during operation, making it ideal for underground installation or confined spaces.
Key Product Features:
Compact Design: The non-rising stem configuration minimizes the overall height of the valve, suitable for installations with height restrictions.
Low Flow Resistance: The full-bore, straight-through channel design ensures smooth fluid flow with a low flow resistance coefficient.
Durable Sealing Surfaces: Sealing surfaces utilize high-quality materials (Bronze/Brass or Stainless Steel/Hard Alloy trim) to ensure a long service life and tight shut-off.
Reliable Packing: Equipped with flexible graphite packing for reliable stem sealing, ensuring light and flexible operation with minimal leakage.
Versatile Actuation: Available with manual handwheel, gear operators, electric, or pneumatic actuators to suit specific application needs.
Structural Integrity: Features a rigid body design with high structural strength, available in elastic wedge, rigid wedge, or double gate configurations.
Applications:
Ideal for Municipal Water Distribution, Underground Piping Networks, HVAC Systems, Fire Protection, and General Industrial Fluid Control. Specifically suited for valve pits, buried service, and mechanical rooms where vertical space is limited.
