Mud Valve

Sludge discharge valve is a type of valve equipment used to discharge sludge and wastewater from the bottom of water tanks. It is widely used in the bottom of water treatment tanks such as filtration tanks, sedimentation tanks, and mixing tanks in urban water plants and sewage treatment plants. The working principle of the sludge discharge valve is to regularly open and close it to help remove sediment from the bottom of the pipeline or water tank, and maintain the smooth operation of the system. The structure of the sludge discharge valve mainly includes the valve body, hydraulic cylinder (or manual device), pneumatic cylinder, piston, diaphragm, valve stem, and valve disc. According to different usage scenarios, sludge discharge valves can be divided into two main types: diaphragm type and piston type. Diaphragm mud valves are usually composed of a valve body, upper and lower diaphragm chambers, a diaphragm, and a valve stem, while piston mud valves are composed of a hydraulic cylinder and a valve body. These designs make the sludge discharge valve have the characteristics of quick opening, quick closing, good sealing performance, and easy maintenance.
