Ladle slide gates based on type FLO-CON
Two-plate slide gate based on type FLO-CON
The most modern version (type XX17) is hydraulically clamped and locked via two pivot bolts. The thermodynamic elements are arranged on a pressure plate which is located directly under the bottom plate.
We stock all variants of the FLO-CON models (type XX15, XX16 and XX17). All models are operated exclusively with FLO-CON plates. We will be happy to work with you to find out which format is right for you. We look forward to hearing from you. Contact us!
The picture shows a FLO-CON slide gate valve type 6317 without heat shield. The clamping cylinder has just been inserted.
The slide gates are designed for the following plate formats:
TYP | ø (mm) |
---|---|
6300 | 50 – 90 |
3100 | 20 – 40 |
4200 | 25 – 60 |
Three Plate Slide Gates based on Type FLO-CON
The modern three-plate slide gate valves of the FT series (link) are simply a few years ahead in development and therefore naturally have the advantages on their side. For ingot casting plants where the main focus is on the budget, our FLO-CON three-plate slide gate valves may be the right choice.
Only refractory plates in the FLO-CON format fit into this slide gate.
Slide gate designations of the more modern FLO-CON slide gates versions are e.g. 4217.3 or 6317.3. The designations may vary depending on the size and version. We will be happy to work with you to find the right model for you. Please write to us. Contact us!
The slide gates are designed for the following plate formats:
TYP | ø (mm) |
---|---|
6300 | 50 – 90 |
3100 | 20 – 40 |
4200 | 25 – 60 |
Mechanically clamped, original FLO-CON pouring ladle gate valve
For our customers who, for various reasons, are not yet ready to modernize their valve fleet, we offer spare parts or even complete valves for the oldest FLO-CON models.
Some type designations are e.g.: 3150 / 4200 / 6300 4212 / 6312
We have both two-plate slide gate valves and three-plate valves in our range. Write to us, we look forward to hearing from you! Contact us!
