How to choose stainless steel gate valve
view :
1. Look at the general standards for valves, such as valve specification categories, which mainly include valve nominal diameter, nominal pressure, and temperature requirements;
2. Selection of stainless steel gate valve material. Choose materials that are suitable for oneself based on the working conditions, such as cast iron, cast steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, ceramics, etc. If the budget is insufficient, cast iron valves can be chosen. If the budget is sufficient, it is recommended to choose stainless steel gate valves. Because the lifespan of stainless steel gate valves can reach 10 times that of ordinary metal valves, which is very good
3. Valve operating mechanism; There are mainly manual, electric, pneumatic, manual hydraulic, electro-hydraulic, etc., which also need to be selected according to your specific needs and budget. Manually operated, the price is relatively low, while electric stainless steel gate valves are more convenient to use and can achieve automated operation.
4. Check if the performance test of the valve has been conducted. Valves must undergo pressure testing before leaving the factory;
5. Check whether the internal and external anti-corrosion of stainless steel gate valves meet the requirements;
6. For the packaging and transportation of stainless steel gate valves, lightweight blocking plates should be installed on both sides for sealing during transportation. Large diameter valves should also be packaged with simple wooden frame fixation to prevent damage during transportation. Medium and small diameter valves can be tied with grass ropes and transported in containers.
