How to choose

Gate and sluice valves open and close by moving a gate, or wedge, across the pipe bore. Fully open, they leave a clear path for the water, and they are used to isolate sections of a main rather than to regulate flow. Kartar's cast iron sluice valves are made to IS 14846 with flanged ends drilled to IS 1538, an SS AISI 410 shaft and gunmetal (bronze) working parts, in 50 mm to 600 mm and in two pressure classes, PN1.0 and PN1.6.

Decide between rising and non rising stem. In a rising stem valve the stem moves up as the valve opens, so you can see at a glance whether it is open, which is useful on fire mains. A non rising stem valve keeps the stem at the same height and suits underground chambers; Kartar supplies it with a cap (K501, K503) for key operation or with a handwheel (K502, K504). The rising spindle version is K505 and K506. For red painted fire lines there is the K-931X extra strong non rising and the K-932 rising spindle sluice valve, both PN16 to IS 14846 in 50 mm to 200 mm, with higher sizes on request.

A resilient seated gate valve (RGV) closes a rubber covered wedge against the body for a tight shut off. Kartar's DI resilient seated gate valves have a pocket less body, toroidal sealing, an EPDM coated DI wedge and 250 micron epoxy coating, to IS 14846 and BS 5163 in PN 1.6: non rising with handwheel (K511, up to 1000 mm) or cap (K511C, up to 300 mm), rising stem (K511 R), the Aqua model (K511 EH, K511 EC) and the red K-933 for fire lines. Kartar's website also lists PN10 and PN16, ISI marking to IS:14846 and a CL125 version to BS:5163.

For higher pressure, the made to order extra strong K504-X (PN1.6, CI body), K504-XX (PN2.0, DI body) and K504-XXX (PN2.5, DI body) cover 80 mm to 200 mm, and cast steel gate valves are made to BS 1414 in Class 150 (K401) and Class 300 (K404). For small bore building lines choose the gunmetal gate valve to IS 778, screwed (K601) or flanged (K605), 15 mm to 100 mm. Add a K507 enclosed gear box for large valves, a K535 extension stem for buried valves, a K536 supervisory switch for monitored fire mains, or a K534 electrical actuator, which Kartar buys in and supplies.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a sluice valve and a gate valve?
Both isolate a pipeline by moving a gate or wedge across the bore, and the two names are often used for the same kind of valve. In India, sluice valve is the usual term on water and fire mains.
Which standard do Kartar sluice valves follow?
Kartar's cast iron sluice valves and DI resilient seated gate valves are made to IS 14846, with flanges drilled to IS 1538. The resilient seated valves are also listed to BS 5163.
What does resilient seated mean?
The wedge is covered in rubber, here EPDM on a DI wedge, which seals against the body when the valve closes. Kartar's website also lists metal seated versions.
Which Kartar sluice valves are meant for fire lines?
The red K-931X extra strong non rising, K-932 rising spindle and K-933 resilient seated valves are listed in PN16, 50 mm to 200 mm, with higher sizes on request.
Can Kartar sluice valves be monitored or automated?
Yes. Kartar lists a supervisory switch arrangement (UL/FM approved or non UL/FM) for rising and non rising stems, a three phase multi turn electrical actuator, which it buys in, and a box type gear.
Does FPS supply and install Kartar valves in Bhopal?
Yes. FPS supplies, installs and maintains Kartar gate and sluice valves in Bhopal and across Madhya Pradesh. Prices are on request: call or WhatsApp +91 92440 89060.
