As the valve is designed with gate support guides, the valves are able to support a 30% of these pressures from the opposite direction without any damage on them. In these cases, the valves are not 100% water tight. To obtain total water tightness in these conditions, it is necessary to incorporate additional supports. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The unidirectional wafer\u2010design knife gate valves of the A series are made of a one\u2010piece cast body with guides to support the gate and the seat wedges.
