 Knife gate valve HX
Stafsjö’s knife gate valve HX is an extreme high pressure
valve for really demanding applications. It has excellent
flow characteristics and it seal tight independent of pres-
sure direction. It is equipped with a through-going gate that
gives a secure shut-off of concentrated media at very high
pressures. This shut-off performance, along with its flow
characteristics, makes it suitable for severe operating con-
ditions with media such as pulp (pulp concentration > 5%),
liquor, reject, powder and ash.

HX is supplied as standard with a reinforced valve body in stain-

less steel with integrated purge ports, but it can also be supplied in
high alloy material such as 254 SMO and Titanium. Tight tolerances,
precisely performed machining and integrated guiding strips lowers
the friction during its operation. Stafsjö’s retainer ring system with
seats on each side of the gate enables it to cope with bi-directional
pressures. The gland boxes are equipped with Stafsjö’s box packing
TwinPack™, scrapers and extra load distributors in PTFE to secure
that no media reaches the surrounding environment.
The top work consists of aluminium beams and stainless steel tie
rods, which gives good corrosion resistance and a stable operation.
The valve is modular designed and it can easily be customized to
specific processes conditions. There are several actuator types and
accessories to choose from in our standard collection.
The HX valve is designed, manufactured, inspected and tested ac-
cording to pressure equipment directive 2014/68/EU category I and
II module A2. The valve is CE marked when it is applicable.
The HX valve is one out of five valves in Stafsjö’s procuct range
with through-going gates. The HG valve represent the standard. HL
is a slim line version of HG while HP is high pressure version. HPT is
a high pressure version entirely made in Titanium.
