Types of Slurry Valves
Here are some of the most commonly used types of slurry valves:
- Pinch valves: These valves have a flexible elastomer sleeve that is pinched to regulate the flow of slurry. Pinch valves are highly efficient at minimizing abrasive wear and tear.
- Knife gate valves: These valves use a sharp-edged blade to cut through the slurry, allowing it to pass through the valve. Knife gate valves are typically used for applications where the slurry is thick and viscous.
- Diaphragm valves: These valves use a flexible diaphragm to regulate the flow of slurry. Diaphragm valves are easy to operate and maintain, making them a popular choice in a wide range of applications.
- Ball valves: These valves use a ball with a hole in the center to regulate the flow of slurry. Ball valves are highly efficient and offer excellent durability and corrosion resistance.
- Butterfly valves: These valves have a disc that is mounted on a shaft and rotates to regulate flow. Butterfly valves are highly versatile and can be used in a wide range of applications.
- Angle valves: These valves are designed to handle abrasive and corrosive materials in industries such as mining, chemical processing, and wastewater treatment. They are named for their angled configuration, which allows for better flow control and reduced wear and tear on the valve stem and seat.
How Angle Straight Slurry Valves Work
Angle straight slurry valves work by controlling the flow of abrasive and corrosive materials like slurry. These valves are designed to be durable and resistant to wear and tear, which is important in applications where the slurry is highly abrasive.
When the valve is closed, a gate or disc is lowered into place across the path of the slurry, stopping the flow completely. When the valve is opened, the gate or disc is moved out of the way, allowing the slurry to flow through the valve.
In an angle straight slurry valve, the gate or disc is placed at an angle to the direction of flow. This angled configuration helps to reduce the amount of wear and tear on the valve stem and valve seat, which can prolong the lifespan of the valve. The angle also helps to reduce the turbulence in the flow of the slurry, making it easier to control the flow rate and reducing the risk of erosion within the valve body.
Angle straight slurry valves are available in a range of materials, from standard metals like cast iron and stainless steel to more specialized materials like ceramic, depending on the specific requirements of the application. They can also be operated using a range of different actuators, including manual, pneumatic, electric, and hydraulic, depending on the type angle valve and the level of automation required.
Benefits of Using Slurry Valves
Angle straight slurry valves offer several benefits in the handling of abrasives, corrosives, and thick slurries. By using these valves, you can achieve more precise control over your process flow in severe industrial applications such as mining, chemical processing, and wastewater treatment. Here are some of the key benefits of using an angle valve or straight slurry valves:
- Optimal Slurry Control: Angle straight slurry valves offer better flow control compared to other types of valves, which reduces the risk of slurry overflow, blockages or clogging. These types of slurry valves help to regulate the flow rate of the slurry, reducing turbulence and resistance in the pipework. This helps to minimize water consumption and material loss.
- Corrosion Resistance: Angle straight valves are designed to handle harsh and corrosive conditions. They are manufactured using highly resistant materials such as stainless steel, ceramic or polymer composites that do not easily corrode. This results in a longer lifespan, even in challenging and corrosive environments.
- Extended Lifespan: The angled configuration of the valve body and disc reduces the wear and tear on the stem and seat leading to the extended valve lifespan which can reduce costly downtime for valve replacements. The innovative design contributes to less valve maintenance over time, resulting in cost savings.

How to Choose the Right Slurry Valve for Your Application
As industrial valve experts, we can provide useful insight into selecting the appropriate slurry valve for various applications. The key factors that influence the valve selection process include:
Industry Type
The industry in which the slurry valve will operate is a critical factor in selecting the appropriate valve type. Different industry applications have unique requirements for regulating slurry flows, and the type slurry valve selected must withstand the specific demands of that industry. For example, the valve used in mining operations may differ from the valve used in chemical processing industries.
Type of Slurry
The type of slurry being handled significantly influences valve selection. Abrasive and corrosive slurries require valves made of specialized materials such as ceramic or high-performance polymer composites compared to softer slurries, many applications which may use standard metal valves.
Pressure
Understanding the pressure of the slurry flow is critical when choosing the appropriate valve. The pressure determines whether the valve must be manual or actuated and the required pressure rating of the valve. Valve manufacturers supply detailed information about the maximum pressure ratings of their valves.
Temperature
Temperature influences the choice of valve materials. High temperatures can cause some materials to degrade and break down, thus, valves selected must be suitable for the temperature demands of the application.
Flow Rate
Flow rate is the velocity of fluid traveling through a system, and has a huge effect on valve selection. Large flows require high-capacity valves, and high pressure resistance while low flows require smaller valves.
