Wey Knife gate valves feature the original wey knife gate valve design, a proven sealing system developed and continuously refined since 1956. This design delivers reliable, long-term shutoff performance in severe-service applications.
Wey Valves are engineered to operate under extreme conditions, including high differential pressure, dead-end service, abrasive and corrosive media, and elevated temperatures. rather than offering standardized, one-size- fits-all products, Wey Valves are configured to match specific process requirements, ensuring dependable performance in critical applications across a wide range of industries.
Sharp Industries only offers the Wey Valves “knifegate” valves and only the following products:
–VL series (click for more)
With the optimized lug design of our VL series, we give you the best of both worlds. It unites cost-saving design and the highest possible performance. Made of stainless steel as standard, it is often used in corrosive applications and, thanks to its 100% bidirectional bubble-tight shut off, offers the best possible customer confidence and satisfaction.
–W series (click for more)
Whether an application is referred to as “severe service”, “high performance”, or “heavy duty”, we have overcome the corresponding challenges with our Wey design. We pushed it to the limit, and the result is the W series. It offers the greatest flexibility, including for the range of nominal sizes, materials, and pressures. It opens up an incredible scope of application. With the W series, we guarantee that we will outperform the competition, no matter what the situation.
–VS series (click for more)
The appeal of the VS series lies in its ingenious semi-lug design. the lightweight construction of this knife gate valve, which is available in stainless steel, makes it very cost-effective. Nonetheless, it gives our customers the highest level of reliability and durability in use. this is also because – like all Wey products – it can be repacked at any time and ensures zero leakage while in use.
–VM series (click for more)
The VM Knife Gate valve is manufactured according to high quality standards, combining a robust design with proven technical features not found in conventional knife gate valves. Thanks to the original, integrated Wey design, it guarantees the best-possible performance and, of course, absolute zero leakage in demanding applications.
–SG series (click for more)
With its special o-port design, the SG model is suitable for the most difficult applications involving solids. due to its unique design, it can easily cut through a medium column holding solids. The integrated transverse seal sets the SG model apart from conventional o-port gate valves, guaranteeing maximum tightness and performance.
-TI3 (click for more)
The TI3 model really is a unique design. it is designed for shut-off isolation of differential pressure level sensing. unlike other transmitter isolating valves, which are only adapted from standard knife gate valves, the TI3 model was developed for the sole purpose of isolating the transmitter. The TI3 uses standard 1/2″ socket drive.
-DB series - double block and bleed
The “double block and bleed” knife gate valve was specially developed for applications using hazardous media. The DB model is a single valve with two seat areas. in the closed position, these provide a seal against pressure from both ends of the valve, and there are purge ports to flush the cavity between the seat areas. The DB model thus makes complex and costly multiple valve systems redundant. in spite of these cost benefits, it offers zero leakage protection in difficult applications.
