    What is an Electric Gate Valve?

Electric gate valve

    An electric gate valve is a type of valve that uses an electric actuator to open and close the valve's gate. The primary function of the gate valve is to allow or block the flow of fluids within a pipeline. Unlike other types of valves, such as ball or globe valves, the gate valve is designed for minimal flow resistance when fully open, making it an excellent choice for applications that require a straight-through flow path.
