ductile Iron Sluice gates

The Montagnoli Ductile Iron Sluice Gates have been designed to ensure reliability and operational performance in water and wastewater treatment applications. Their one-piece design of the frame and gate provides robustness and precision in operation and gate sealing. The Ductile Iron Sluice Gates feature a self-lubricating wedge system that ensures smooth operation and low coefficient of kinematic friction, requiring less force for actuation, thus extending the lifespan and performance of the gate while maintaining 100% sealing efficiency. The wedges also have an adjustable position system to compensate for natural wear throughout the gate’s lifespan. As standard, the Ductile Iron Sluice Gates adhere to the guidelines and requirements of the AWWA C501-92 standard.

APPLICATIONS:

  • Water and Wastewater Treatment

CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS:

BODY:

The frame of the Ductile Iron Sluice Gates is typically made of Ductile Iron. However, different materials can be requested based on customer needs, such as SAE 1018, 1040, GGG40.

GATE:

In the Ductile Iron Sluice Gates, the gate is manufactured from the same material as the body, ensuring the rigidity of the assembly and maximizing product lifespan.

WEDGES:

By default, the wedges are made of Bronze SAE 660. Throughout the lifespan of the gate, the natural wear resulting from its operation leads to the wear of the wedges due to their lower Brinell Hardness (HB 45) compared to the material of the frame and gate.
