Hydra Gate Valve
Hydra Gate Valve
The Hydra Gate Valve is an iron body bronze mounted double disc gate valve designed and constructed to the requirements of AWWA C-500. The Hydra Gate Valve has a number of features which assure easier and more reliable operation than valves of traditional design. A double disc gate valve closes in two stages. In the first step, the downward travel of the two discs stops at a point where the disc and body rings coincide. In the next step, the disc actuating mechanism moves against the discs and pushes them apart so they press against the body rings, thus providing the sealing action and completing closure.
