وصف
Full-bore stainless steel isolation valve
صمام بوابة إسفين من الفولاذ المقاوم للصدأ
A rising-stem gate valve for fully open or fully closed service in process piping, available with material, تقليم, end and operator selections matched to the piping specification.
What is a stainless steel wedge gate valve?
A wedge gate valve controls flow by raising or lowering a wedge-shaped closure member between two seats. In the fully open position, the flow path is substantially unobstructed, making the design suitable for isolation where low pressure drop is important.
Flexible wedges can accommodate limited seat alignment and temperature effects better than a rigid solid wedge in many services. Gate valves are not normally selected for throttling because partial opening can cause vibration, seat erosion and damage to the wedge or guides.

تصميم, testing and project compliance
API 600
أساس التصميم المشترك لصمامات البوابة الفولاذية ذات غطاء المحرك المثبت بمسامير. مادة, تقليم, سمك الجدار, testing and marking are tied to the ordered edition.
ASME B16.34
Defines pressure-temperature and general valve design requirements within its scope.
API 598
Provides common shell, backseat and closure pressure-test requirements when specified.
API 624 / ISO 15848-1
Fugitive-emission qualification applies only to the qualified stem packing system and valve design.
Standards are supplied only when stated in the quotation and purchase order. آمنة للحريق, الانبعاث الهارب, الخدمة الحامضة, cryogenic and PED requirements require a defined design and supporting qualification or documentation.
تطبيقات نموذجية
| صناعة | واجب نموذجي | Selection focus |
|---|---|---|
| المعالجة الكيميائية | Main process-line isolation | Corrosion-compatible pressure boundary, trim and packing |
| البتروكيماويات | Unit isolation and block duties | Fire-safe philosophy, emissions and pressure class |
| توليد الطاقة | ماء, steam auxiliaries and chemical systems | Temperature rating, trim and operating torque |
| Marine and offshore | Utility and selected seawater systems | Duplex material, external corrosion and actuation |
Application examples are not a service approval. The end user or piping materials engineer must verify corrosion compatibility, pressure-temperature limits, emissions class, operating frequency and applicable regulations.

الأسئلة المتداولة
Should a wedge gate valve be used for throttling?
عادة لا. A wedge gate valve is intended for fully open or fully closed isolation. Extended partial opening can cause unstable flow, vibration and damage to seating surfaces.
What is the difference between a flexible and solid wedge?
A flexible wedge has controlled flexibility that can accommodate limited seat-angle and thermal effects. A solid wedge is more rigid. The project specification and service determine the correct choice.
What does OS&Y mean?
Outside screw and yoke means the stem threads are outside the pressure boundary. With a rising-stem arrangement, stem movement also provides visual position indication.
Can duplex stainless steel be supplied?
نعم, subject to the required cast grade, المعالجة الحرارية, اختبار التآكل, trim compatibility, welding controls and pressure-temperature rating.
Which documents should be specified?
تشمل المتطلبات المشتركة EN 10204 3.1 السجلات المادية, pressure test reports, مؤشر مديري المشتريات, dimensional inspection and GA drawings. Project-specific NDE and third-party witnessing should be stated at inquiry stage.
