African Valve is the leading Knife Gate Valve Supplier in South Africa. We provide swift and fast delivery of our premium valves globally. It is a type of Valve valves for on/off isolation application involving the control of high concentrations of solids, such as slurries and viscous media. They feature a shaped gate or blade that acts as a closure element, sliding in and out and controlling the flow of fluids, providing a tight shutoff. In the open position, the gate allows unobstructed flow, and in the closed position, it is pressed against the valve seats, forming a tight seal to stop the flow. The gate can be actuated either manually or through electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic actuators. 
They have a slim design that makes them suitable for installations in tight spaces or between flanges, optimizing space utilization in piping systems. They are widely used in wastewater treatment, mining, and pulp and paper processing. They are also designed to perform in high pressure and temperature, their minimal pressure drop, bi directional sealing capacity makes them ideal for a wide range of industries.

Types:
●Uni-directional knife gate valve: These valves are designed to allow fluids to flow in one direction only while preventing backflow, effectively control slurry provide relieve sealing 
●Bi-directional knife gate valve: They are designed to control the fluid flow in both the direction, effectively handle slurry and other solid media, used in the application where flow direction may change
●Slurry knife gate valve: They are specially designed to handle the flow of slurry and viscous media, have robust construction prevents clogging and erosion
●Flanged knife gate valve: They have flanged end design to handle abrasive and challenging media, provide easy installation and removal, ensure reliable sealing 
●Through conduit knife gate valve: Designed to handle large, solid particles or slurries.
