Cast steel manual gate valve

Overview

A cast steel manual gate valve is a valve used to control the flow of liquids or gases in a pipeline, operated manually via a handwheel. Here’s a breakdown:

• Material: Made from cast steel, which offers excellent durability and resistance to high pressure and temperature. Cast steel is preferred in industrial applications where strength and heat resistance are required.
• Manual Operation: Operated manually by a handwheel, allowing for simple control over opening and closing. This makes it cost-effective and easy to use in systems where automation is not necessary.
• Gate Design: Like other gate valves, it features a gate (either solid or flexible) that moves up or down to regulate fluid flow. The gate fully opens or closes the passage, minimizing pressure drop when open.
• Applications: Suitable for high-pressure, high-temperature environments such as oil, gas, and water supply systems, as well as chemical processing and power generation plants.
