Pratt Industrial LV0253D4NR-MH-V3 2 in. Ductile Iron LVC Figure 53 Bolted Body Knife Gate Valve

Description

Pratt Industrial LV0253D4NR-MH-V3 2 in. Ductile Iron LVC Figure 53 Bolted Body Knife Gate Valve Description

The Pratt Industrial Figure 53 Bolted Body Knife Gate Valve is engineered for rugged industrial applications requiring reliable shut-off in challenging media such as slurries, pellets, and powders. Constructed with a heavy-duty cast ductile iron body and stainless steel gate, this valve features a natural rubber seat that provides a bi-directional drip-tight seal from 0 to 150 PSI. The bolted seat design prevents shifting during operation, while the flush seat eliminates pockets that could trap material. Its epoxy-coated finish enhances corrosion resistance, and the valve offers easy conversion from manual handwheel operation to hydraulic, pneumatic, or electric actuators. Designed to MSS SP-81 and AWWA C520 standards, this valve ensures durability and long-term performance in harsh environments.

Features

• Heavy-Duty Ductile Iron Construction: Cast ductile iron body, packing gland, and yoke provide strength for the most demanding applications.
• Bi-Directional Drip-Tight Seal: Natural rubber seat delivers reliable sealing from 0 to 150 PSI, with optional EPDM and Buna materials available.
• Bolted Seat Design: Molded-in steel reinforcement and bolted installation prevent seat movement during gate operation.
• Flush Seat Configuration: Eliminates pockets that collect media, ensuring smooth flow and reducing clogging.
• Versatile Actuation Options: Easily converts from handwheel to hydraulic, pneumatic, electric motor, bevel gear, chainwheel, or fail-safe spring cylinder using the existing yoke.
• Enhanced Durability: Enclosed bronze stem nut reduces operating torque and protects against harsh environments, while stainless steel stem resists corrosion.
• Corrosion Protection: Epoxy powder coating applied inside and outside for superior resistance to environmental damage.
