Middleeast valve is one of the best Gate Valve suppliers in UAE . We supply to cities like Ibri, Sur, Muscat, and Mutrah.
A gate valve is a type of valve used to control the flow of fluids (liquids or gases) by using a gate or wedge-like disc that moves perpendicular to the flow path to either block or allow the passage of the fluid.
The main function of a gate valve is to provide a tight shutoff, effectively stopping the flow of fluid through the pipeline when the valve is fully closed, and allowing unrestricted flow when the valve is fully open. Gate valves are commonly used in applications where the fluid flow needs to be completely shut off, such as in water supply systems, oil and gas pipelines, industrial processes, and more.
Gate valves consist of several main components, including the body, gate (wedge), stem, actuator, and seats. Here's how they work:
- Open Position:
In the open position, the gate (wedge) is fully retracted into the valve body, allowing the fluid to flow through the valve with minimal obstruction. The gate moves perpendicular to the direction of the fluid flow. The valve is opened by turning the valve stem (either manually using a handwheel or with an actuator) which is connected to the gate.
- Closing Position:
To close the valve, the stem is turned in the opposite direction, causing the gate to move down into the flow path of the fluid. As the gate descends, it gradually restricts the flow until the valve is completely closed. The gate makes contact with the valve seats located at the bottom of the valve body, forming a tight seal that prevents any further flow.
Suppliers of Gate Valve in the UAE are recognized for their capacity to deliver a secure seal and minimal pressure loss when in the fully open position. Nevertheless, it's worth noting that gate valves typically necessitate more turns to fully open or close compared to valve types such as ball valves. Therefore, it's crucial to choose gate valves for suitable applications and refrain from using them for flow control in situations that demand frequent adjustments.
