Neles™ knife gate valves

Reliable isolation

Neles knife gate valves are ideal for all industrial shut-off applications for example in pulp & paper and water & wastewater industries.

Expansion areas reduce stress and allow the seats to be axially flexible

Solid top works and robust gland box system for 100% reliability

Reinforced seats guarantee shape and position in the bore during operation improving the stability and performance

Integrated expansion areas provide low operating force and minimize the stress on the seats

Features

Neles knife gate valves provide total operational reliability:

Gland box packing and machined support
Easy maneuvering and low energy consumption
Low maintenance through gate guidance via stable top works
Unique seat design and seat material for high performance and low LCC
No flow restriction fully open
One piece casting body
Stainless steel gate
Robust gland box packing system
