DESCRIPTION
The sluice gates P2V type are used as cut-off elements for channels, underwater holes and storage tanks. They consist of an enbloc steel shield suitably stiffened, lateral seals in SBR elastomer hollow round bar, frames in standard steel sections, driving system with steel double screws hinged to the gate and double reduction gear with a handwheel. Sealing can be easy, that is achieved on smooth surface or to a wedge scheme, with four sliding bronze wheels fitted on shafts and four wedges bolted on the frame, so as to obtain an horizontal thrust by compressing the sealing surfaces. The sluice gates are available with seals on three sides, like the model P2V3, and with seals on four sides, like the model P2V4. Other versions are P2V3A and P2V4A, similar to the previous ones as for the technical characteristics, but provided with electric actuator. Any versions can be supplied as light, medium or heavy series and of the type with rising or not rising screw. The standard construction is in carbon steel. On request it is possible to produce the sluice gates completely in stainless steel.
