• The XC model knife gate is a wafer valve designed for industrial bulk handling service applications (powdered and granular products). The special design of the body allows for easy passage of the fluid and makes it ideal for use as silo outlet valve. Widely used in industries such as:

    Power plants
    Food and Beverage
    Chemical plants
    Mining
    Etc.
    The valve is normally installed in the reverse position (seat upstream) in order to avoid problems like build-up in valve body, seat wear, difficult closing...
