dn100 gate valve
The DN100 gate valve represents a crucial component in industrial fluid control systems, featuring a nominal diameter of 100mm. This robust valve is engineered to provide reliable shut-off capabilities in various applications, functioning through a vertical sliding gate mechanism that effectively controls flow. The valve's design incorporates high-grade materials, typically including ductile iron or cast steel body construction, with stainless steel trim options for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. The DN100 gate valve operates on a simple yet effective principle: when fully open, it allows unrestricted flow with minimal pressure drop, and when closed, it forms a tight seal that prevents any fluid passage. The valve's wedge-shaped disc moves perpendicular to the flow, guided by body channels that ensure precise alignment and sealing. Notable features include a non-rising stem design that maintains a compact installation profile, reinforced sealing surfaces for extended service life, and compatibility with various actuation methods including manual handwheel, electric, or pneumatic operators. This versatile valve finds extensive application in water treatment facilities, industrial processing plants, power generation systems, and municipal water distribution networks, where reliable flow control and shutoff capabilities are essential.
