Flexible Wedge The flexible wedge gate valve illustrated in Figure 6 is a one-piece disk with a cut around the perimeter to improve the ability to match error or change in the angle between the seats. The cut varies in size, shape, and depth. A shallow, narrow cut gives little flexibility but retains strength. A deeper and wider cut, or cast-in recess, leaves little material at the center, which allows more flexibility but compromises strength. | Valves DOE-HDBK-1018 2-93 TYPES OF VALVES Solid Wedge The solid wedge gate valve shown in Figure 5 is the most commonly used disk because of its simplicity and strength. A valve with this type of wedge may be installed in any position and it is suitable for almost all fluids. It is practical for turbulent flow. Flexible Wedge The flexible wedge gate valve illustrated in Figure 6 is a one-piece disk with a cut around the perimeter to improve the ability to match error or change in the angle between the seats. The cut varies in size shape and depth. A shallow narrow cut gives little flexibility but retains strength. A deeper and wider cut or cast-in recess leaves little material at the center which allows more flexibility but compromises strength. A correct profile of the disk half in the flexible wedge design can give uniform deflection properties at the disk edge Figure 5 so that the wedging force applied in Solld Wedge Gate Valve seating will force the disk seating surface uniformly and tightly against the seat. Figure 6 Flexible Wedge Gate Valve Gate valves used in steam systems have flexible wedges. The reason for using a flexible gate is to prevent binding of the gate within the valve when the valve is in the closed position. When steam lines are heated they expand and cause some distortion of valve bodies. If a solid gate fits snugly between the seat of a valve in a cold steam system when the system is heated and pipes elongate the seats will compress against the gate and clamp the valve shut. This problem is overcome by using a flexible gate whose design allows the gate to flex as the valve seat compresses it. The major problem associated with flexible gates is that water tends to collect in the body neck. Under certain conditions the admission of steam may cause the valve body neck to rupture the bonnet to lift off or the seat ring to collapse. Following correct warming procedures prevent these problems. Rev. 0 Page 11 ME-04 TYPES OF VALVES DOE-HDBK-1018 .
