Tank bottom valves

Used to discharge liquids directly from the bottom of tanks, reactors, or vessels.Ideal for handling viscous, sticky, or slurry-type materials without clogging.Common in pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries for hygienic and clean draining.Allows sampling, draining, and bottom emptying without product residue.

  • Working Principle

A tank bottom valve is installed at the lowest point of a tank to allow direct product discharge.The valve has a flush-mounted design so the plug sits level with the tank interior.When the actuator (manual, pneumatic, or electric) is operated, the valve plug lifts from the seat.This upward movement opens the flow path and lets the liquid exit smoothly.The flush design prevents product Pfrom collecting or stagnating inside the valve.When the actuator is released, a spring or actuator force pushes the plug back onto the seat.This seals the tank tightly and stops any leakage or contamination.The valve seat is designed to ensure clean and complete draining of the tank.The design also allows safe discharge of viscous, dense, or sensitive materials.Overall, the valve enables hygienic, residue-free, and controlled bottom emptying of tanks.
