When choosing the right GOST standard cast steel flange gate valve, consider the following key factors:
-
Application Environment:
-
Ensure the valve is suitable for the type of fluid (steam, thermal oil, water treatment, etc.) and the working conditions (pressure, temperature).
-
-
Valve Body Material:
-
Select a material (WCB, CF8, Hastelloy, etc.) based on corrosion resistance and temperature resistance.
-
-
Size and Pressure Rating:
-
Choose the valve size (DN50-DN300) and pressure rating (PN16, PN25) based on the pipeline specifications.
-
-
Temperature Range:
-
Ensure the valve can handle the required temperature range.
-
-
End Connection:
-
Ensure the valve’s flange matches the pipe connection.
-
-
Operation Type:
-
Choose manual or automatic operation based on frequency of use.
-
-
Maintenance and Durability:
-
Consider valves with long-lasting durability and minimal maintenance.
