DeZURIK KSL slurry knife gate valves, designed for on-off isolation service, are ideally suited for applications consisting of abrasive, high solids content, wet or dry media in the mining, power and aggregate industries.
Available in two styles, Long Body Design (KSL-LA) and Short Body Design (KSL-SD), DeZURIK slurry knife gate valves feature sleeves of natural rubber, EPDM or other elastomers that are compressed by sleeve retainers, allowing the valve to provide drip-tight shutoff and exceptional service life in abrasive and erosive applications.
Other features include bi-directional, drip-tight shutoff to full pressure rating, and field replaceable sleeves with encapsulated supporting ring. The full port reduces turbulence and pressure drop across the valve. The sleeve compression eliminates cavity where solids can collect. Sleeve design eliminates the requirement for flange gaskets. Gate fully retracts out of the flow path in the open position.
DeZURIK slurry knife gate valves are available in sizes 2-24″ (50-600mm) with larger sizes available on application.
