Product Datasheet - 940

Model 940 Knife Gate Valves


Model 940 features a full lug single piece cast stainless steel
body to cater to the more demanding applications. This
model can be used with the same functionality of flanged
valves, including end of line applications. Model 940 has a
cast superstructure designed to have optimum flexural rigidity. The superstructure also allows interchangeability between
manual and pneumatic actuators.
Cast single-piece body design is more rugged and offers better leak tightness than fabricated or cast two-piece body
valves; it is also superior to valves with cast body and
stainless steel lining which are more susceptible to corrosive
and erosive wear.
