Wedge gate valve flanged E3, DN80, PN16, short, for water, soft-sealed, without handwheel, GJS-spheroidal graphite cast iron (series 4000E3) 5017698

Wedge gate valve – reliable flow shut-off

The E3 flanged gate valve, made of spheroidal graphite cast iron (GJS-400-18), is a solid and durable solution for shutting off water flow in water supply networks. The valve's design, based on a proven wedge mechanism, guarantees tightness and reliable operation. It is an essential element in any system where a complete cut-off of the medium is required – during maintenance, repair work or network expansion.

The valve is characterized by a straight-through channel, which minimizes flow resistance and prevents pressure drops in the pipeline. This design also allows for easy cleaning of pipes without the need to disassemble the valve. This ensures not only safety but also ease of use.

Construction and application

The E3 gate valve with soft sealing is designed for operation with water and has a pressure class of PN 16 and a nominal diameter of DN 80. Made of high-quality cast iron GGG 40.3 (GJS-400-18), it provides corrosion resistance and long-term operation. The short construction facilitates installation in places with limited space. The lack of a handwheel means that an additional drive or handle must be used – providing flexibility in control selection.

These types of gate valves are ideal for use in:

• Municipal and industrial water supply networks
• Water supply installations
• Irrigation systems
• Industrial process installations requiring water shut-off

Certification and corrosion protection

The valve has a GSK certificate, confirming high quality workmanship and effective corrosion protection. This means that the product meets stringent standards and will provide long-term protection against the negative effects of the environment, minimizing the risk of failure and repair costs. In addition, the material of construction – spheroidal graphite cast iron – is itself characterized by good corrosion resistance, which increases the durability of the entire structure.
