O-Port Gate Valves
DeZURIK KGO O-Port Gate Valves can be used on virtually all types of liquids, slurries and dry materials, but are specially designed to handle high-consistency paper stock, wood chips, fly ash, and slurries with high solids content and highly viscous fluids. KGO O-Port Gate Valves are ideally suited for applications such as High Density Cleaners, Cyclones, Trash Dump Valves and Refiner Bypass or Isolation in the Pulp & Paper, Mining and Power industries.
O-Port Valves can also be used on applications that require a valve to be capable of closing through a standing column of dry material. As the gate slides closed, it carries a slice of the media into the valve body. When the valve slides open, it pulls the slice of media from the body back into the flowing media stream.
DeZURIK KGO-CST O-Port Gate Valves feature a cast body with purge ports in the chest and lower body area to allow periodic purging to prevent clogging. KGO Valves provide unidirectional face sealing and a gate that is precision ground on all sides and beveled to maximize packing life. Metal or resilient seats are available.
