Indinganiso kazwelonke esetshenziswa kakhuluivalvu yesangoyivalvu yesango le-wedge. Isici sayo sokwakheka ukuthi izindawo ezimbili zokuvala esivalweni se-wedge kanye nezindawo zokuvala zemifula emibili yokuzulazula emzimbeni wevalvu zakha umbhangqwana wokuvala ukuze kufezwe umphumela wokuvala. Isakhiwo sayo silula, futhi uketshezi luncane, futhi luvame ukusetshenziselwa ukuthuthwa okude, amapayipi namadivayisi amanzi, uwoyela, igesi kanye nezinye izinto. Inhloso yokusebenzisa isango le-wedge ukwandisa umthwalo wokuvala osizayo, ukuze ivalvu yesango lemodi yensimbi evaliwe ikwazi ukuvala kokubili ukucindezela okuphezulu okuphakathi kanye nokucindezela okuphansi okuphakathi. Uma uvala, jikelezisa isiqu sevalvu ngokwewashi ukuze wenze ubuso bokuvala bevalvu yesango kanye nokuphakama kokuvala komzimba wevalvu kube seduze ukuze kufezwe uphawu. Kodwa-ke, ukucindezela okuqondile kwesivalo ekugcineni kokungena kwevalvu yesango lemodi yensimbi evaliwe ekhiqizwa isenzo sokuvala ngokuvamile akwanele ukufeza uphawu lokugcina lokungena. Ngakho-ke, ivalvu yesango lemodi yensimbi evaliwe uphawu oluphoqelelwe oluhlangothini olulodwa.
Izikhathi ezisebenzayo ze-valve yesango lemodi:
Ububanzi bokusetshenziswa kanye nezici zesakhiwo se-wedge valve kazwelonke ejwayelekile, phakathi kwezinhlobo ezahlukene zama-valve, i-valve yesango yiyona esetshenziswa kakhulu. Ngokuvamile ifaneleka kuphela uma ivuliwe ngokuphelele noma ivaliwe ngokuphelele, futhi ayikwazi ukusetshenziselwa ukulungisa nokucindezela.
Amavalvu esango lemodi avame ukusetshenziswa ezimweni lapho kungekho mfuneko eqinile ngobukhulu bangaphandle bevalvu, futhi izimo zokusetshenziswa zinzima kakhulu. Njengendawo yokusebenza yokushisa okuphezulu kanye nokucindezela okuphezulu, kuyadingeka ukuthi izingxenye zokuvala zivalwe isikhathi eside.
Ngokuvamile, izimo noma izidingo zokusebenzisa zidinga ukusebenza okuthembekile kokuvala, umfutho ophezulu, ukunqunywa komfutho ophezulu (umehluko omkhulu wokucindezela), ukunqunywa komfutho ophansi (umehluko omncane wokucindezela), umsindo ophansi, ukucasuka kanye nokuhwamuka, izinga lokushisa eliphezulu eliphakathi nendawo, izinga lokushisa eliphansi (i-cryogenic), kunconywa ukusebenzisa i-Wedge gate valve. Njengemboni yamandla kagesi, ukuhluzwa kwephethiloli, imboni ye-petrochemical, uwoyela ongaphandle kolwandle, ubunjiniyela bokuphakelwa kwamanzi kanye nobunjiniyela bokwelashwa kwendle ekwakheni emadolobheni, imboni yamakhemikhali kanye neminye imikhakha.
