Slurry Valve
The AK valve is designed for abrasive and corrosive slurries. The valve is suitable for a range of tough applications. The valve's vent design allows it to purge solid particles during the operating cycle without fluid leaking to the atmosphere. The flexible, two-piece rubber sleeve design allows it to cycle in heavy slurries without sticking.
The valve has a gate ramp design that allows easier entry of the knife gate, resulting in a longer wearing life of the rubber sleeve because less force is required to actuate the valve. The unit's enclosed bronze bushing with a protected grease chamber means less operating force after long dormant periods. The valve has an ANSI Class VI shutoff, bi-directional shutoff, large cross section packing, a 150-PSI ANSI rating, full port flow, and is a wafer style.
