As a type of linear-motion isolation valve, the gate valve can either completely shut off or allow fluid flow through a pipeline. It is commonly used for isolation operations in potable water supply systems and plays a critical role at the raw water intake head. In the primary pump station (raw water intake station) of a water treatment plant, large-diameter …

The secondary water supply pump room serves as a pivotal component in ensuring consistent and reliable water delivery, particularly in high-rise buildings and remote areas where municipal water pressure is insufficient. This facility stores treated tap water in tanks and utilizes booster pumps to elevate water pressure, enabling it to overcome gravitational challenges and friction losses within vertical and extended …

Gate valves in water distribution systems act as the critical “cut-off” points along water mains, service connections, and pipelines leading to treatment plants. Their main function is to provide a reliable, on/off mechanism to completely isolate sections of the network for maintenance, repairs, or system modifications without disrupting the overall pressure and flow in the remaining network. When a gate …
