Two-way knife gate valve
The Two-Way Knife Gate Valve is specifically designed for isolation and flow control in systems that handle slurry, viscous liquids, and other media containing solids. It features a robust knife gate that cuts through thick and abrasive materials, ensuring smooth operation even in harsh and challenging environments. This valve is most commonly used in industries such as mining, wastewater treatment, pulp and paper, and chemical processing. Its design allows for bidirectional flow, providing greater versatility in installation and operation.

产品概述
The Two‑way Knife Gate Valve is a gate valve with a sharp knife‑edge disc that can withstand media pressure from both directions and provide reliable shut‑off. Unlike unidirectional knife gate valves, the two‑way knife gate valve features a specially designed sealing pair (typically a bidirectional floating seat or double‑sided sealing construction), ensuring zero‑leakage closure regardless of the flow direction.
This valve is suitable for harsh media containing solid particles, fibers, and slurries, and is widely used in papermaking, wastewater treatment, mining, chemical, and power generation industries. The sharp knife‑edge disc can cut through hanging fibers and solids during closure, providing self‑cleaning action and preventing clogging. The valve has flanged connections, with nominal diameters from DN50 to DN1200, pressure ratings PN10/PN16 (Class 150), and body materials including cast iron, carbon steel, and stainless steel.
产品结构
The Two‑way Knife Gate Valve mainly consists of the following parts:
-
阀体: Cast or fabricated body in gray cast iron, ductile iron, carbon steel (WCB), stainless steel (CF8/CF8M), etc. Flanged ends conforming to GB/T 9113, ANSI B16.5, EN 1092‑1, etc. Full‑bore flow path with no pockets to prevent material buildup.
-
Gate: Stainless steel (304, 316, 310S) knife‑edge gate with a sharp edge to cut through fibers and particles. The gate surface can be hardfaced with Stellite or chrome‑plated for improved wear resistance.
-
Seats: Bidirectional sealing seats – typically a floating seat or double‑sided sealing design. Seat materials include rubber (EPDM, NBR, FKM), PTFE, metal (Stellite hardfaced), or ceramic. The bidirectional design ensures pressure‑tight sealing from either direction.
-
Stem: Stainless steel trapezoidal‑thread stem, connected to the actuator at the top and the gate at the bottom, lifting and lowering the gate.
-
阀盖: Integral or separate bonnet with internal guides to ensure vertical gate movement.
-
Packing Box: Contains PTFE or flexible graphite packing, compressed by a packing gland to prevent external leakage. Blow‑out proof construction optional.
-
Yoke: Supports the actuator.
-
Actuator: Available with handwheel (manual), bevel gear, electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic actuator.
Simple construction, dead‑spot‑free flow path, vertical gate movement, and reliable bidirectional sealing.
功能
-
Bidirectional Media Shut‑Off: Regardless of which side the media enters, the floating seat is pressed against the gate by media pressure, achieving bidirectional sealing with zero leakage.
-
Knife‑Edge Cutting Function: The sharp edge of the gate cuts through hanging fibers, paper, plastic strips, rags, and other materials during closure, preventing clogging.
-
Self‑Cleaning Flow Path: The body flow path has no recesses. When fully open, the media can flush the interior, preventing solids accumulation.
-
Wear and Corrosion Resistance: Optional hardfaced gate, ceramic seat, or all‑stainless‑steel construction for abrasive or corrosive media.
-
Full‑Bore Low Flow Resistance: When fully open, the gate is completely out of the flow path, providing minimal pressure loss.
-
Multiple Actuator Options: Manual, electric, or pneumatic operation to meet different requirements.
-
在线维护: Some designs allow packing and seat replacement without removing the valve from the pipeline.
工作条件
-
适用介质: Pulp, sewage, sludge, mineral slurry, coal slurry, powders, fiber suspensions, particle‑laden liquids, corrosive liquids, etc.
-
温度范围: –20°C to +200°C (PTFE seats); –20°C to +80°C (rubber seats); –29°C to +550°C (metal seats).
-
压力等级: PN10, PN16 (Class 150); higher ratings available on request.
-
公称通径公称通径:DN50 – DN1200(2″ – 48″);更大尺寸可按要求提供。.
-
安装方向: No strict direction limitation (bidirectional sealing), but vertical stem‑up installation is recommended.
-
典型应用:
-
Pulp line shut‑off in paper mills
-
Sewage and sludge lines in wastewater treatment plants
-
Mine tailings transport pipelines
-
Ash and slag lines in coal‑fired power plants
-
Chemical fiber and polymer slurry pipelines
-
Fruit pulp and sauce pipelines in food industry
-
Dust collection ash lines in steel mills

总结
The Two‑way Knife Gate Valve, with its advantages of bidirectional sealing capability, knife‑edge cutting function, self‑cleaning flow path, and wear/corrosion resistance, is one of the most reliable shut‑off valves for applications involving particles, fibers, and slurries in papermaking, wastewater, mining, and chemical industries. Compared with unidirectional knife gate valves, the two‑way version requires no consideration of installation direction and can accommodate changing flow directions or bidirectional pressure requirements.
Compared with ordinary gate valves, the knife‑edge gate effectively cuts through fibers and particles, preventing clogging. The valve features flanged connections, a full‑bore flow path, and fast open/close operation. For pipeline systems that handle media containing solid particles, fibers, or slurries and require reliable bidirectional shut‑off, the Two‑way Knife Gate Valve is an ideal choice.
