Manual-Hydraulic Slabbing Gate Valve: Versatile Controller in Fluid Systems

2025-07-10

In the diverse world of fluid control equipment, the manual-hydraulic slabbing gate valve stands as a versatile and reliable option, combining the flexibility of manual operation with the power of hydraulic drive to meet various flow control needs in industrial pipelines.

The structure of the manual-hydraulic slabbing gate valve is designed for durability and functionality. It mainly includes a valve body, a gate plate, a stem, a manual operating mechanism, and a hydraulic drive system. The gate plate, which is perpendicular to the flow direction of the medium, acts as the key component for opening and closing the valve. The manual operating mechanism allows for direct manual operation when needed, while the hydraulic drive system provides powerful and stable force for larger or higher-pressure valves.

The working principle of this valve is straightforward yet effective. When in operation, either the manual force or the hydraulic pressure is transmitted through the stem to the gate plate. To open the valve, the gate plate is lifted, creating a passage for the medium to flow through. To close the valve, the gate plate is lowered until it tightly fits against the valve seat, forming a reliable seal that blocks the flow of the medium. The combination of manual and hydraulic operation ensures that the valve can be operated conveniently and efficiently in different working conditions.

Manual-hydraulic slabbing gate valves find extensive application in industries such as oil and gas, mining, and water treatment. They are particularly suitable for pipelines transporting high-viscosity media, slurries, or media containing solid particles. This is because the gate plate's design minimizes the contact area with the medium when the valve is fully open, reducing the risk of clogging and wear.

One of the significant advantages of this valve is its dual operation mode, which offers flexibility and reliability. The manual operation ensures that the valve can still be operated even when the hydraulic system fails, while the hydraulic drive provides the necessary power for heavy-duty operations. Additionally, the valve has excellent sealing performance, even in low-pressure conditions, and the gate plate and valve seat are typically made of wear-resistant materials, extending the valve's service life.

In conclusion, the manual-hydraulic slabbing gate valve, with its flexible operation, reliable performance, and wide applicability, plays an important role in ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of industrial pipeline systems.
