DESCRIPTION:
Bidirectional – Knife Gate Valve – Serie XB
Bidirectional knife gate valve for abrassive fluids with variousconcentrations
of solids with zero leakage to enviroment. It is not needed any joint between
flanges as it is incorporated in the body. This valve´s main characteristics is
that it provides a full continuos flow. This means that in open position it produces
no cavities and there are no turbulences in the fluid.
