How to choose a bottom valve for a tank with solid materials?
Our company uses upward-opening discharge valves, which can be opened even when there is some sediment present, and are less prone to clogging
A ball valve is the best choice for this situation!
It gets clogged easily; use a ball valve. If leakage isn’t a concern, a butterfly valve works too – it depends on the amount of fluid and what kind of fluid it is
It is difficult to choose valves for solid media; generally, gate valves, hemispherical valves, and ball valves are used. It's better to choose a hemispherical valve here.
Material discharge valves are generally used at the bottom of the kettle
Ball valves are generally used; for handling solid media, fixed-ball ball valves or hemispherical valves yield better results
It is recommended to use a \"Y\"-type plunger valve. I’m not familiar with the upward-opening discharge valves used on the 3rd floor, but they should work as well; it’s just unclear what the process conditions are for their use Please introduce it!
In the occasions I have seen, most of those that use plug angle valves perform well, with minimal risk of leakage or damage.
The internal components of ball valves are prone to wear; it is recommended to use a Y-type discharge valve
We use ball valves for discharging spiral and high-temperature materials; they are imported and deliver excellent results.
