Description
A CI sluice valve (also known as a gate valve) is a linear motion, full-bore isolation valve used to start or stop flow in pipelines. It provides tight shut-off with minimal pressure drop when fully open, making it ideal for water, effluent, and industrial services where isolation of flow is required.
