Gate Valves Resilient Seat Double-Socket PN16

Applications

Clover resilient seat double socket gate valves PN16 are suitable for use in pressure and non-pressure water supply and sewerage applications. Gate valves are used to isolate flow within pipeline sections, pipeline equipment and offtakes.

Typical applications include;

• Potable and recycled water supply
• Irrigation and raw water
• Gravity and sewer rising mains
• Fire systems
• Stormwater and drainage
• Buried and above ground

Gate valves should not be used for the purposes of throttling or adjusting flow.
