ORBINOX Knife Gate Valve – Precision Engineering for Industrial Excellence

ORBINOX Knife Gate Valve 

Precision Engineering for Industrial Excellence

ORBINOX, a globally renowned Spanish manufacturer since the 1960s, delivers high-performance knife gate valves designed for demanding industrial applications. Our valves combine durability, reliability, and innovative technology to ensure optimal flow control in sectors such as water treatment, mining, pulp and paper, chemical processing, and power generation.

Key Product Highlights

1. Unmatched Durability

   • Constructed with thickened casings and premium materials, ORBINOX valves withstand harsh environments and abrasive media, outperforming competitors in longevity.

   • Corrosion-resistant designs cater to aggressive fluids and high-pressure conditions (up to PN100/Class 600).

2. Precision Flow Control

   • Engineered for exact regulation of water, steam, gases, and slurries, minimizing pressure loss and ensuring system stability.

   • Bidirectional and unidirectional models (e.g., Series EX, EK, EB) adapt to diverse pipeline configurations.

3. Zero-Leakage Seal Technology

   • Wedge-shaped sealing mechanism mechanically forces the gate against the seat, guaranteeing tight shut-off even under fluctuating pressures.

   • Self-cleaning design prevents particle buildup, reducing maintenance downtime.

4. Quick Response & Low Torque Operation

   • Patented orbital movement separates the gate from seats during actuation, eliminating friction and enabling smooth, low-torque operation.

   • Compatible with pneumatic, electric, hydraulic, or manual actuators for seamless integration.

5. Global Certifications & Compliance

   • Certified under ISO 9001, PED 2014/68/EU, ATEX (for explosive environments), and CE Mechanical Directive.

   • Full traceability and adherence to EN 1092, ANSI B16.5, and MSS SP-81 standards.

Applications Across Industries

• Water & Wastewater Treatment: Slurry and sludge handling in pumps and pipelines.

• Mining & Bulk Handling: Control of abrasive materials like ores and sediments.

• Pulp & Paper: High-pressure shut-off for chemical dosing and pulp flow.
