Gate Valve (DIN) is a type of sliding valve that provides reliable isolation and minimum pressure loss in process pipelines. EMS Valve’s engineering approach in line with DIN/EN standards combines durability, safety and ease of maintenance.

Gate Valve (DIN) – Definition and Advantages

A gate valve (sliding valve) is a valve that fully opens or fully closes the flow by moving the wedge/gate element up and down. As it provides a straight-through flow path in the fully open position, friction and pressure loss are low. This characteristic offers energy efficiency in high-flow lines and resistance to clogging in fluids containing solid particles. The OS&Y (Outside Screw & Yoke) design improves operational safety by making the stem position easily visible from outside.

Application

Gate Valve (DIN) delivers reliable performance in lines where full open/close isolation is required. The straight-through bore and low torque requirement help reduce operating costs.

Oil & Gas / Refining

Stable tightness at high temperatures and pressures. Compatible integration in European plants where DIN/EN flanges are preferred instead of RTJ.

Power Plants

Long service life in steam and thermal oil circuits through metal-to-metal seating and proper alloy selection; remote operation via gearbox or actuator.

Water & Wastewater, Chemicals

Low pressure loss in clean water and process fluids. With stainless/alloy bodies and suitable gaskets for chemical resistance, the risk of corrosion is reduced.

Installation and Maintenance Recommendations

Proper installation and planned maintenance are critical to sustaining sliding valve performance.

  • Clean flange faces, check alignment and tighten with the appropriate torque.
  • Verify stroke and torque values during initial commissioning.
  • Perform periodic visual inspection of stem, packing and bonnet connections.
  • Regularly check limit/torque switch settings on actuated versions.
  • Before servicing, depressurise the line and ensure it has cooled to a safe temperature.
