SVR Global provides the best Bidirectional Knife Gate Valve manufacturers in Canada which ensure that quality solutions will be delivered to all industrial flow controls. It is a type of valve through which fluid flow is possible in both directions and ideal for uses where dependable tight shut-off is demanded. In fact, it is widely used in industries that involve working with slurry, viscous liquids, or bulk material with great control and a huge amount.

This is called a bi-directional knife gate valve simply because it uses a sharp-edged knife gate or blade that cuts with a reasonable seal through tough media such as slurries or solids. Knives are different from ordinary gates as they can have flow and pressure on both sides. With some tough piping systems, they can save force.

How Does a Bidirectional Knife Gate Valve Work?

A knife gate is operated based on a simply effective principle. When fully open, the gate will completely withdraw and allow flow in any direction that is not restricted. It closes by downward movement of the gate as it cuts into the media, sealing against the seats in the valve chamber on either side. This valve uses two elastomer or metal seats and seals tightly under a reversed flow condition. Gates of this design normally involve a linear motion because it can be actuated either manually or actuated by the stem.
