API 6A Pneumatic Gate Valve | 2000-10000 PSI

Home › API 6A Gate Valves › API 6A Pneumatic Gate Valve

Product Overview

The DEENPU pneumatic gate valve combines our API 6A slab gate body with a double-acting or spring-return pneumatic actuator for remote and automatic operation. It is used wherever valves must open or close without an operator at the valve — ESD systems, automated manifolds and remote wellheads.

Spring-return (fail-safe) actuators close the valve automatically on loss of air supply; double-acting actuators are available where fail-as-is behavior is preferred. Actuators are sized to open the valve against full rated differential pressure.

Key Features

• Fail-safe spring return or double-acting actuation
• Opens against full rated differential pressure
• 2000 – 10000 PSI working pressure
• Compact scotch-yoke or rack-and-pinion actuator
• Manual override handwheel standard
• Open / close position indicators for remote status

Dimensions & Technical Data

Quality & Testing

Every DEENPU API 6A Pneumatic Gate Valve is manufactured under our API-compliant quality system: raw material traceability, 100% dimensional inspection, hydrostatic pressure testing and hardness verification before packing. Material certificates, inspection reports and API documentation are provided with shipment on request.

Applications

• Automatic ESD (emergency shutdown) valves on wellheads
• Remote wellhead and manifold operation
• Automated choke and kill manifolds
• Compressor and pump discharge isolation

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What happens when air supply is lost?

A: With the spring-return actuator, the valve automatically closes (fail-close). Double-acting configurations hold their last position.

Q: Can the valve be operated manually?

A: Yes — every valve includes a manual override so it can be cycled by hand during maintenance or air outage.

Q: Do you supply solenoid valves and positioners?

A: Yes, solenoid pilot valves, limit switches and positioners can be supplied mounted and tested with the valve.
