DESCRIPTION
Wall mounted gates, also referred to as penstocks, are used to close off an opening in a wall or the end of a pipe, and provide a complete seal around the periphery of the opening in the wall or pipe.
Generally, seals are Neoprene J seals which allow water pressure to force the seal against the seating surface of the frame. Where off-seating pressures occur, the seals are reversed. If both seating and off-seating pressure conditions are present, double seals are used. Ideally this kind of gate should use rising type spindle as the threaded section is out of the fluid.
