Parallel double disc gate valve: Complete Technical Guide
The Parallel Double Disc Gate Valve is a high-precision industrial valve designed for on/off flow control in medium- and high-pressure pipeline systems. Unlike conventional wedge gate valves, this design uses two parallel discs with a spring or wedge mechanism, ensuring uniform sealing on both sides of the seat. This feature provides excellent tightness, low torque operation, and extended service life.
It is widely used in power plants, water supply networks, oil and gas pipelines, and petrochemical systems, where safety, durability, and minimal leakage are critical.
This guide covers accessory explanations, maintenance frequency, after-sales service, and upgrade options, giving customers a professional reference for installation, operation, and long-term performance optimization.
Every Parallel Double Disc Gate Valve is built with multiple precision-engineered components. Understanding these accessories helps in maintenance, repair, and upgrades.
| Accessory | Description | Function |
|---|---|---|
| Valve Body | Cast steel, ductile iron, or alloy construction | Provides structural strength and withstands pressure |
| Parallel Double Discs | Two flat gate discs | Ensure double-sided sealing for tight shut-off |
| Seat Rings | Hardened metal or resilient material | Provide sealing surfaces against gate discs |
| Spring/Wedge Mechanism | Installed between discs | Maintains uniform pressure against seats |
| Stem | Rising or non-rising type | Transfers motion from actuator/handwheel to discs |
| Bonnet | Bolted or pressure-sealed | Protects stem and internal components |
| Gland Packing | Graphite, PTFE, or composite | Prevents leakage along the stem |
| Handwheel / Actuator | Manual, electric, or pneumatic | Provides valve operation and control |
| Fasteners & Gaskets | Bolts, nuts, sealing rings | Ensure leak-free connections |
Parallel sealing discs minimize wear compared to wedge designs.
Replaceable seat rings allow cost-effective refurbishment.
Automation compatibility supports integration with SCADA and control systems.

Regular maintenance is essential for long service life and reliable performance.
| Component | Inspection Frequency | Maintenance Action |
|---|---|---|
| Valve Body & Bonnet | Every 12 months | Check for corrosion, cracks, or deformation |
| Parallel Discs & Seats | Every 6–12 months | Inspect sealing surfaces for wear; replace if damaged |
| Stem & Packing | Every 6 months | Lubricate stem, adjust or replace packing if leakage occurs |
| Spring/Wedge Mechanism | Annually | Test spring tension or wedge alignment |
| Handwheel / Actuator | Every 6 months | Verify smooth operation; calibrate actuator if required |
| Fasteners & Gaskets | Every 12 months | Tighten bolts, replace gaskets if leakage is detected |
Always depressurize and drain the pipeline before inspection.
Use original spare parts to ensure compatibility and sealing performance.
