Precautions for installation and use of NRS gate valve

August 26, 2021

NRS gate valve means non-rising stem gate valve; RS gate valve means rising stem gate valve.

Gate valves can be divided into RS gate valves and NRS gate valves according to their appearance structure. This article mainly introduces the NRS gate valve. In the structure of the NRS gate valve, the stem nut is placed inside the valve body and fixed on the gate plate. Through the rotation of the valve stem, the valve stem nut drives the gate plate to move up and down to complete the opening and closing.

The trapezoidal thread used in the drive of the concealed stem gate valve is located inside the valve body, so it is not affected by the external environment, but it is easily corroded by the medium circulating in the pipeline, and cannot be directly lubricated, which will damage the valve stem over time. Because the valve stem is located in the valve body, the opening degree of the concealed stem gate valve cannot be directly observed, and an indicator device is required.
The concealed stem gate valve requires a small operating space and is suitable for occasions with limited locations and dense pipelines, such as ships and underground pipelines. So what should be paid attention to during the installation and use of the concealed stem gate valve?
1. Before installation, you must carefully check the various standards of the concealed stem gate valve and whether the diameter meets the requirements for use; pay attention to the valve during transportation to avoid bumps. Before installing the concealed stem gate valve, remove the dirt in the valve body.
2. During installation, the concealed stem gate valve can be directly installed on the pipeline according to the connection method and installed according to the used position. Under normal circumstances, it can be installed at any position of the pipeline, but for future operation and maintenance considerations, choose an appropriate location for installation. The concealed stem gate valve should pay attention to the tightness during installation to prevent leakage and affect the normal operation of the pipeline.
3. The NRS gate valve should always be kept clean during use, and the transmission thread must be regularly lubricated. When a fault is found, it should be stopped immediately to find out the cause and clear the fault.
4. The concealed stem gate valve uses a hand wheel, do not use levers or other tools to avoid damaging the valve parts. Turn the handwheel clockwise to close, and vice versa to open. The dark stem gate valve should be used reasonably to ensure the correct use method and means.
5. The NRS gate valve stored for a long time should be checked regularly. The processing surface that is often

exposed should be kept clean, cleaned of dirt, and stored neatly in a ventilated and dry place indoors. It is strictly forbidden to stack or store in the open air.

Difference between NRS gate valve and RS gate valve

August 11, 2021

NRS gate valve, means Non-rising Stem gate valve; RS gate valve, means Rising stem gate valve. you can see the difference in appearance on below photos.

Gate valve is one of the most common valves in piping systems. Because it can only be fully open and fully open, gate valves are commonly used when the fluid medium in the pipeline needs to be cut off. The operation of the gate valve does not need to be so frequent. Gate valves are widely used because they can be divided into many types. Different gate valve types have certain differences in use. This article mainly analyzes the difference between the RS gate valve and the NRS gate valve.

Gate valves are classified according to the type of stem, which can be divided into two types: RS gate valve and NRS gate valve. The two are different in transmission mode, valve body structure, installation space, application range, etc.
1. The difference in the transmission mode. The transmission mode of the RS gate valve is that the handwheel drives the nut to rotate in place, and the valve stem rises and falls linearly. Through the threaded drive of the valve stem and the steering wheel, the valve flap is raised and lowered to complete the switch; the NRS gate valve is manual The wheel drives the valve stem to rotate. The hand wheel and the valve stem are connected together and relatively immovable. There are threads in the gate, and the valve stem rotates at a fixed point to drive the gate to rise and fall.
Second, the difference in structure, the structure of the rising stem gate valve is that the stem nut is on the bonnet or bracket. When the gate is opened and closed, the stem nut is rotated to realize the lifting of the stem. The structure of the NRS gate valve is that the stem nut is in the valve body and is in direct contact with the medium; when opening and closing the gate, it is realized by rotating the stem.

Third, the difference in installation space, the rising stem gate valve requires a larger installation space due to the stem; the height of the NRS gate valve is small, and it will not take up too much space during installation.
Fourth, the difference in application scope, the structure of the rising stem gate valve is beneficial to the lubrication of the stem, and the degree of opening and closing is obvious; the stem thread of the NRS stem gate valve is not only unable to be lubricated, but it is directly corroded by the medium and is easily damaged. Therefore, the RS gate valve is more The NRS stem gate valve has a wider range of applications.

The above is the difference between the RS gate valve and the NRS gate valve. Next, I will introduce you a little common sense, how to judge the RS gate valve and the NRS gate valve:

The stem of the RS gate valve drives the gate to move up and down together. The drive thread on the stem is outside the valve body. The opening and closing and position of the gate can be intuitively judged according to the movement direction and position of the stem; the drive thread of the NRS gate valve is located on the valve. Inside the body, during the opening and closing process, the valve stem only rotates, the gate moves up and down in the valve body, and the valve opens and closes until the steering wheel does not rotate.

RS gate valve and NRS gate valve are different from the transmission mode. RS gate valve is a handwheel that drives a nut to rotate in place, and the stem is linearly raised and lowered to complete the switch; NRS gate valve is a handwheel that drives the stem to rotate, and there are threads in the gate. Nut) to move up and down to complete

the switch.
Structural principle of gate valve:
1. NRS gate valve structure: The stem nut is in the valve body and is in direct contact with the medium. When opening and closing the gate, it is realized by rotating the valve stem.
2. RS gate valve structure: the stem nut is on the bonnet or bracket. When opening and closing the gate, the stem nut is rotated to realize the lifting of the stem.

The difference between RS gate valve and NRS gate valve:
1. RS gate valve can see the screw, but NRS can not see the screw;
2. The RS gate valve raises or lowers the disc through the threaded transmission of the valve stem and the steering wheel; when the NRS gate valve is switched on and off, the steering wheel and the valve stem are connected and relatively immobile. It drives the valve through the rotation of the valve stem at a fixed point. The flap is lifted up and down to complete the opening and closing;
3. The transmission thread of the NRS gate valve is located inside the valve body. During the opening and closing process, the valve stem only rotates, and the gate is raised and lowered in the valve body; the valve stem of the RS gate valve drives the gate to rise and fall together, and the drive thread on the valve stem Outside the valve body, the opening and closing and position of the gate can be intuitively judged according to the movement direction and position of the valve stem;

4. The height of the NRS gate valve is small; the RS gate valve requires a larger installation space;
5. The structure of the RS gate valve is beneficial to the lubrication of the valve stem, and the degree of opening and closing is obvious; the thread of the valve stem of the NRS gate valve is not only unable to be lubricated, but it is directly corroded by the medium and is easily damaged. Therefore, the RS gate valve is more widely used.
