The gate valve is the most widely used on/off valve for large diameter,
full port applications. When the valve is fully open, it allows straight
passage through an opening that is essentially the same size as the inside
diameter of the connecting pipe, so there is little pressure drop through
a gate valve. The valve operates when the handwheel and stem screw (or
electric actuator) move a cylindrical plug, the gate, up and down at right
angles to the fluid flow. Traditionally, gate valves are used only for
on/off service, but Asahi/America's unique sliding plug design provides
a larger seating area than conventional gate valves, so it can be used
for throttling.
