Structural Features
Cylinder Actuator
Utilizes a cylinder to drive the gate up and down, resulting in fast opening/closing.
Double Gates
These adopt floating connections to provide reliable one-way seals. The floating connection helps distribute friction evenly, increasing service life.
Anti-Wear Ceramics
Sealing surfaces are lined with anti-wear ceramics, offering excellent resistance to abrasion.
Compact Design
Easy for transportation, installation, and maintenance.
Working Principle
The cylinder drives the gate to move downwards via the stem, engaging the sealing surfaces of the gate and body, thereby closing the valve. The reverse movement makes the valve open.

Installation, Use & Maintenance
Before Installation
Clean the valve and remove any defects that may have occurred during transportation.
Checking
Ensure that the marks and nameplate on the valve align with operating requirements.
Installation Direction
This valve can be installed on pipelines at any angle.
Operation
The valve should be either fully open or fully closed when in use. Using it as a throttle valve may result in faster wear.
Long-Term Storage
Store in a dry, ventilated room with periodic checks to prevent rust.
Transportation
Avoid knocking during transportation to prevent damage.
If your application includes dry ash conveying systems and hopper pumps, high abrasive industries, mining, Pulp and paper industry, and chemical, please feel free to contact a THINKTANK representative, our pneumatic ceramic double disc gate valves are capable of high-temperature operation and are especially suitable for applications in granular media.
