Understanding Electric Gate Valves
Electric gate valves are designed to control the flow of liquids and gases through a piping system. They operate by raising or lowering a gate within the valve body, providing a full open or closed position. This mechanism allows for minimal resistance to flow, making electric gate valves ideal for applications that require complete shut-off or unrestricted flow. Unlike manual valves, electric gate valves are operated through an electric actuator, which enhances precision and responsiveness.
