In the bustling city of Dubai, where the skyline is dotted with iconic structures and industries thrive, ensuring fire safety is paramount. One crucial component in the robust firefighting infrastructure of the region is the gate valve. Specifically designed for firefighting pumping stations and industrial applications, gate valves play a pivotal role in safeguarding lives and assets.
Dutco Tennant LLC is one of the top suppliers of industrial firefighting gate valves in the UAE. They will be featuring AVK's high-quality gate valves at Intersec 2024, Dubai World Trade Centre, Stall H11 in Block 2, from January 16-18, 2024.
AVK gate valves are not just ordinary valves; they are engineered with precision and built-in safety features that make them ideal for firefighting applications. The design incorporates a fully vulcanized wedge in a double bonding process using AVK's own drinking water approved EPDM rubber compound. This ensures a low compression set, allowing the valve to regain its original shape after compression, providing an unmatched ability to withstand the rigors of firefighting situations.
The valve features a triple stem seal system, a high-strength stem, and a comprehensive corrosion protection mechanism, offering unparalleled reliability in critical firefighting scenarios. One distinctive feature is the fixed, integral wedge nut that prevents vibration, ensuring stable and consistent performance even under challenging conditions.
Key Features of AVK Gate Valves:
Integral Wedge Nut: Prevents vibration, enhancing stability.
Ductile Iron Wedge Core: Fully encapsulated in drinking water approved EPDM, preventing corrosion.
Large Through Bore in the Wedge: Eliminates stagnant water collection, preventing contamination.
Stainless Steel Stem: Rolled threads for high strength.
Triple Stem Seal System: Ensures maximum reliability.
Round Bonnet Gasket: Fixed in a groove, preventing blowouts in pressure surges.
Counterbored and Hot Melt Sealed Bonnet Bolts: In stainless steel, preventing contact with water.
Fusion Bonded Epoxy Coating: RAL 3000, according to DIN 30677.
One of the standout features is the full bore and clearway, providing an unobstructed path for water flow during firefighting operations. The low operating torque further facilitates smooth and efficient valve operation.
