VM Model (Semi-Lugged Design):

The Wey Knife Gate Valve Model VM is truly a high performance knife gate valve design. This valve provides zero leakage bi-directional shut-off, has mechanically retained seals, has a compact non-rising stem design, and can be repacked in service under full pressure. The chest and seating areas of the valve are self-cleaning. The reduced chest area, minimal gate arc, and contoured flushing corners in the body prevent jamming by eliminating material build-up in the chest, body and seating area. The gate seals against a combination metal and resilient seat and is guided for the full stroke length of the valve. The top “transverse” seal is re-packable while in service under full pressure. The valve is tested and rated for zero leakage (liquid or gas) downstream and to atmosphere.
