Working Principle of Pneumatic Gate Valve

2024-07-06

Brief introduction of pneumatic gate valve:

The pneumatic gate valve is equipped with a pneumatic actuator, which is driven by compressed air to control the gate valve. The valve core is composed of a wedge-shaped structure and a parallel structure, which is suitable for the emergency cut-off and discharge of gas and liquid pipelines.


Working principle of pneumatic gate valve:

When using the air source to operate the gate valve, the small handle of the manual device must be turned to the pneumatic position to open and close the nut and the screw rod. When the compressed air enters from the upper pipeline of the cylinder, the piston and the piston rod in the cylinder are pushed straight When the compressed air enters from the lower pipe, the gas pushes the piston and piston rod in the cylinder to move upwards, and at the same time drives the valve stem to move upwards to open the valve. When there is no air source, the screw rod and the opening and closing nut can be used to open and close the valve. First, the upper and lower intake pipes of the cylinder are in the exhaust state, and the small handle of the manual part is in the manual position, so that the opening and closing nut and the screw are in the manual position. In the normal meshing state, turn the large handwheel at the manual part at this time. When the handwheel is turned clockwise, the valve is closed, and when the handwheel is turned counterclockwise, the valve is opened. When the air source is introduced from the upper air inlet, the valve stem drives the valve plate to move downward, and the valve is closed.

When the air source is introduced from the lower air inlet, the valve stem drives the valve plate to move upward, and the valve opens.
