Versatile Application & Material Options

AUDCO (LnT) Gate Valves are designed for a wide array of industrial and commercial uses. Available in sizes ranging from 15 mm to 600 mm, they can be constructed from cast iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, or other requested materials, ensuring compatibility with various pipeline requirements. These valves deliver robust performance across diverse fluid media and thermal ranges.

Advanced Design & Reliable Operation

Using internationally recognized standards such as API 600 for design and ASME B16.5 for end connections, these valves guarantee reliable and safe operation. The choice of soft or metal seat sealing, along with rising or non-rising stems, provides optimal flexibility based on installation needs. The bolted bonnet structure further enhances maintenance reliability and service life.

FAQ's of AUDCO (LnT) Make Gate Valve:

Q: How does the AUDCO (LnT) Gate Valve operate in pipeline systems?

A: The gate valve utilizes a manual handwheel or gear mechanism to raise or lower the gate, controlling fluid flow. It provides full bore opening, allowing unrestricted media passage, making it effective for shutoff applications in industrial and commercial pipeline systems.

Q: What are the material and sealing options for this gate valve?

A: You can choose from cast iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, or other materials based on your requirement. The valves can be fitted with soft or metal seats for sealing, and trims can be selected as 13% Cr, stainless steel, Monel, or other alloys as needed for optimal durability and chemical compatibility.

Q: When should a rising stem vs. non-rising stem gate valve be selected?

A: Rising stem valves are preferred where visual indication of valve position is important, and space allows for upward movement. Non-rising stem valves are ideal when vertical space is restricted, as the stem does not move upwards as the valve is operated.

Q: Where are these gate valves commonly installed?

A: These valves are widely used in industrial sectors-such as water treatment, oil and gas, steam distribution, and commercial facilities-where robust shutoff and durability are required. They are suitable for both aboveground and underground pipeline installations throughout India and beyond.

Q: What is the process for quality and performance testing of the valve?

A: All valves undergo rigorous testing in accordance with API 598 or IS 14846 standards, ensuring leak-tight performance and reliable operation under specified pressures and temperatures before dispatch.

Q: What benefits does the rust-proof coating provide?

A: The fusion bonded epoxy or painted rust-proof coatings protect the valve exterior from corrosion, extending service life and maintaining appearance even in harsh operating conditions.

Q: How does the full bore design benefit pipeline operations?

A: Full bore valves ensure there is minimal pressure drop across the valve, reducing turbulence and enabling cleaning devices like pigs to pass through, thus improving system efficiency and reducing maintenance needs.
