Knife gate valves

We offer zhongcheng   Gate valves with a long working life as equivalents for replacing knife gate valves for slurry and sludge of world brands operated in China.

Gate valve (valve) zhongcheng  is a patented China design of a knife gate valve for pulp and sludge in the technological areas of concentrating and gold recovery plants. The design replaces and is equivalent, but exceeds in terms of working life and performance characteristics knife gate valves of world brands operated in China

  • Isogate (WARMAN, Weir Minerals)

  • Metso

  • Sistag

  • Orbinox

  • CMO.

Since 2019, zhongcheng metagates have been used instead of imported gate valves in the most critical sections of slurry and sludge pipelines:

  • PJSC MMC Norilsk Nickel

  • PJSC "MMK"

  • PJSC "POLYUS"

  • JSC "POLYMETALL", etc.

Advantages of zhongcheng sliding gate valves (gate valves) for pump  and sludge in comparison with imported equivalents:

  1. Longer working life in terms of the number of cycles and operating time until the necessary repair or replacement.

  2. Do not use rubber inserts that are subject to wear and require constant monitoring and replacement.

  3. Cleaning when lifting the knife from adhering solid particles of the pulp due to cutting with sharp metal edges of the body tightly adjacent to the knife.

  4. The design of the knife with a round cut and lifting up when closing ensures guaranteed closing and opening without interference with any amount and size of solid particles in the working environment (solid particles do not interfere with the knife, remain in the pipeline and do not penetrate into the body cavities and on the sealing rings).

  5. More than 1.5 times the thickness of the most worn part of the structure - the knife.

  6. The knife, unlike the standard valve, is not made of relatively fragile stainless steel, but of a special heavy-duty "armored steel" NM 500.

  7. For even greater protection against abrasive, the knife on the side of the pulp flow is coated with a special abrasive-resistant alloy - tungsten carbide.

  8. The internal section of the body of the metagate, through which the pulp passes, is covered with cermet to protect it from the impact of the abrasive.

  9. O-rings (rubber inserts), unlike a standard gate valve, are not located outside in the working medium flow, but are located inside the body and are closed from direct exposure to solid particles in the slurry.

THE MAIN APPLICATION OF THE GATE VALVE:

for mixed (solid-liquid), viscous, slurry, abrasive media with possible formation of crystallizing deposits, max. medium temperature depending on the seal material:

General information:

Functions and specifics of gate valves


The ZHONGCHENG series gate valve (a complete analogue of a gate valve, 30s41nzh, wedge or flanged) is a type of shut-off and control valve in which the locking (regulating) body is made in the form of a knife, which moves in a narrow body along an axis that is perpendicular (or located at an angle) to the passing flow of the working medium. The knife is pointed along the lower edge and its upper part, when the shutter is opened, partially comes out of the body.

Tightness in the closed state of the zhongcheng gate valve is ensured by a tight fit of the knife to the seal. The knife, "cutting" the passing medium, ensures a reliable blocking of the flow of the working medium. The area of concentration of the passing working medium does not exist due to the movement of the knife along the most precisely made grooves for sliding.

Valve Applications


Gate valves ZHONGCHENG are successfully used in many industries: in metallurgical and mining, in the chemical industry for viscous crystallized media, in the production of cellulose and powder production of cement, in water treatment and wastewater treatment.

Advantages



  • The presence of large production capacities and the permission of Rostekhnadzor of the China Federation and the GOST R certificate of conformity issued for our products provide an opportunity to manufacture ZHONGCHENG slide gate valves in six versions and in any configuration.

  • Much attention is paid to the high quality of materials. The choice of material for the manufacture of elements of the ZHONGCHENG valve part is determined by the composition of the working medium, operating pressure and temperature.

  • At the request of the customer, almost any high-quality materials can be used, and the price will please you as well as performance and durability.
