Gravity Diverter Valves

Gravity diverter valves are gravity-operated valves that are used in pipelines to allow for the passage of liquid in one direction and to stop it from moving in the opposite direction. They are typically made from an internal valve gate and an external gate that open in opposite directions when the liquid passes through. The external gate closes upon the liquid retreating, forcing the liquid to remain in its original direction. These valves are often used to separate an upstream and downstream system, allowing for quick and easy changes of flow direction. They are often used in irrigation systems, wastewater systems and other applications where a steady supply of water is needed in one direction.
