Description

The NPS 24″ Class 150 LUG Non-Rising Stem Unidirectional Knife Gate Valve is a heavy-duty industrial isolation valve engineered by XIAMEN GUTE VALVE MANUFACTURING COMPANY. Built from high-tensile iron casting for structural rigidity and cost-effective fluid containment, this valve features a beveled shearing knife edge and a pocketless full-port bore. It is designed to cleanly slice through fibrous pulp, municipal sewage, and abrasive mineral slurries without clogging or solid accumulation.

Engineering Configuration

NPS 24″ | Class 150 | Unidirectional Knife Gate Valve | GG25 | LUG Ends | Non-Rising Stem

  • Face-to-Face Length (L): 154 mm (EN 558 Series 20 / MSS SP-81)
  • Net Weight: 620 kg
  • Stem Configuration: Non-Rising Stem
  • Sealing Performance: API 598 Rate A Soft Seat / MSS SP-81 Metal Seat
  • Top Flange: ISO 5211 Standard Actuator Mounting Pad

Trim & Metallurgy Customization

  • Blade Shearing Edge: Precision ground beveled stainless steel knife gate (SS304 / SS316 / Duplex 2205) optimized for high-density fiber cutting.
  • Seat Options: Resilient EPDM, NBR, Viton, PTFE, or Stellite hardfaced metal seats for high-temperature ash and dry bulk powder service.
  • Actuation Flexibility: Configurable with Handwheel, Bevel Gearbox (recommended for DN250+), Double-Acting Pneumatic Cylinder, Electric Actuator, Hydraulic Cylinder, or Quick Lever.

Rigorous Quality Assurance

  • 1. Material Spectro Analysis: 100% PMI verification on all pressure-retaining body castings and gate blades.
  • 2. MSS SP-81 Shell Hydrostatic Test: Tested at 1.5x rated working pressure with zero allowable body wall leakage.
  • 3. API 598 Seat Leakage Test: 1.1x hydrostatic seat testing ensuring zero bubble/drop leakage for soft seats or <= 40 ml/min/inch for metal seats.
  • 4. Actuation Cycling Test: 100% factory stroking and limit switch verification under simulated shop air pressure.

Frequently Asked Technical Questions

Q: What is the operational difference between unidirectional and bidirectional sealing?

A: Unidirectional valves rely on downstream seat guidance and body wedges for shutoff in pressurized flow lines. Bidirectional valves incorporate a perimeter elastomer U-seat providing bubble-tight isolation in both flow directions.

Q: How does the beveled knife-edge prevent jamming in high-consistency media?

A: The acute beveled edge acts as a mechanical shear, cleanly slicing through dense pulp, sewage rags, and crystalline solids without compaction or jamming.
