DRAIN VALVE FOR SLURRY APPLICATION

I HAVE DESIGNED A DRAIN VALVE WHICH WILL BE SUITABLE TO INSTALL IN THE SUCTION LINE OF A PUMP.

DRAIN VALVE IS USED TO DRAIN OUT THE HANDLING LIQUID OR SLURRY FROM THE PUMP'S SUCTION AND DISCHARGE LINE AS & WHEN NEEDED.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF THIS TYPE OF VALVE IN COMPARISON TO DRAIN VALVES BEING USED CONVENTIONALY ARE AS FOLLOWING.

CONVENTIONAL DRAIN VALVES

NEWLY DESIGNED DRAIN VALVE

FITTED AT THE BOTTOM OF SUCTION PIPE

FITTED IN THE SAME LINE OF THE SUCTION PIPE

OPERATING WHEEL ARE AT THE BOTTOM , TO OPERATE THE VALVE OPERATOR BENDED HIMSELF OR SITS ON HIS TOE

WHEEL AT THE TOP OF PIPE, HENCE EASIER TO OPERATE.IT IS ALSO VERY SAFE .

THICK SLURRY MAY BE DEPOSITED AT THE SEAT ,DISC ,STEM AREA AND CLOG THE VALVE MAKING IT INOPERABLE

THIS POSSIBILITY IS ELEMINATED

FREQUENT MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED ALONGWITH REPLACEMENT OF SPARES LIKE GLAND PACKING , GLAND NUT , STEM , DISC , SEAT RING ETC.

THIS VALVE DOES NOT HAVE GLAND PACKING, GLAND NUT, STEM, DISC, SEAT RING – HENCE A REQUIREMENT OF SPARE IS NEARLY ZERO. MAINTENANCE IS ALSO BARE MINIMUM.

HOW CAN IT BE MARKETED
