140mm PVC Knife Gate Valve

AQUA MINA PVC Knife Gate Valve – Flow Control Solution for Fish and Shrimp Farming

The product targets two main application groups: building water supply and drainage systems with pressure below 10 meters of water column, and fish and shrimp farming systems.

1. What is a PVC Knife Gate Valve?

A PVC knife gate valve uses a plate-type valve disc to open or close the flow within a pipeline. During operation, the disc moves vertically, allowing flow control without requiring significant surrounding space. Compared to conventional shut-off valves, knife gate valves feature a simple design, easy operation, and high suitability for systems requiring frequent flow shut-off and release.

In the market, knife gate valves are manufactured from various materials such as stainless steel, cast iron, steel, brass, or plastic. For systems in constant contact with water or saltwater, selecting corrosion-resistant materials is critical.
