闸阀的应用工况和操作
闸阀的应用工况和操作
1. 闸阀通常应用于开启-关闭场合,不能用于节流应用。 Gate valves are normally used for on-off service and are not recommended for throttling service.
2. 闸阀通常安装在水平管道上,阀杆垂直向上。也可以安装在垂直管道或者阀杆不是垂直向上的水平管道上,但是根据阀门的通径大小、应用环境和材料的具体情况,可能要求特殊的结构。如果购买的阀门准备采用特殊的安装方式,则在订购时,应该说明阀门的朝向。 Gate valves are normally installed in horizontal pipe runs with the stem vertical. They can also be installed in vertical or horizontal pipe runs with the stem other than vertical, but may require special construction depending on valve size, service conditions and materials. WHEN PURCHASING VALVES FOR OTHER THAN NORMAL INSTALLATION, THE VALVE ORIENTATION SHOULD BE SPECIFIED.
3. 对于温度超过260℃的应用环境,建议采用柔性或拼合式楔形闸板,避免楔形闸板由于热膨胀而被卡住。这种情况在阀门冷关闭而后热开启状态下可能发生。 Flexible or split wedges are recommended for service above 500 ? to avoid wedge binding due to thermal expansion. This may occur if the valve is closed when cold, and then heated to operating temperature.
4. 当用于高速流体(湍流)或热循环应用时,为了避免松开,螺纹阀座环应该锁焊在阀体上。请在订购时加以指定说明。 Threaded seat rings should be lock welded to the body when used in high velocity (turbulent) or thermal cycling services to avoid loosening. Please specify.
5. 关闭闸阀后,阀杆应该稍微回转(1/8至1/4圈),以释放阀杆负载。这使得阀杆能够稍微膨胀,不会卡住或损坏阀门,也不会影响关闭效果。 After closing a gate valve with sufficient force to develop shutoff, the stem should be backed off slightly (1/8 to 1/4 turn) to relieve stem load. This will enable the stem to expand slightly without binding or damaging the valve and will not affect shutoff.
6. 如果拆卸掉阀座环安装耳柄,则高度整体性关闭闸阀可以用在热水出口或采用软铁的管道系统中。在订购时请加以指定说明。
7. 泵站使用不受场地限制、水中杂物较多、易堵塞重要位置的阀门,可采用手电两用闸阀;反之可采用蝶阀,尤其用在泵房改造工程中可采用蝶阀,以便有效利用原有泵房的空间,达到在原泵房面积不变的前提下提高供(排)水量的目的。 |
