Gate valve MAGNAPLAST Zasuwa burzowa DN160, model 22170, DN160

MAGNAPLAST Zasuwa burzowa DN160 gate valve model 22170 is a metal shut-off valve designed for reliable pipeline isolation with a nominal diameter of DN160. It provides straightforward on/off control of water and similar neutral fluids used in drainage, stormwater and utility systems. The valve is suitable for installation in both underground and above-ground pipelines where a DN160 isolation point is required, and it is intended for use by installation and maintenance teams responsible for flow blocking and system servicing.

Advantages

The MAGNAPLAST DN160 gate valve features a robust metal construction that ensures mechanical durability and resistance to the conditions commonly found in drainage and stormwater systems. Its simple gate mechanism delivers positive sealing for effective shut-off, reducing the risk of unwanted flow during repairs or maintenance. The valve is engineered for straightforward integration into existing DN160 pipelines and designed to require minimal routine intervention when installed correctly.

Suitable for

• Isolation of DN160 water pipelines in drainage and stormwater systems
• Maintenance and repair operations requiring temporary flow shut-off
• Installation in underground utility conduits and above-ground pipe runs
• Use by contractors, municipal maintenance teams and plumbing professionals

Key specifications

• Nominal diameter: DN160
• Function: gate (on/off) shut-off valve
• Material: metal body and internal gate components
• Intended media: water and similar neutral fluids used in drainage/stormwater
• Installation position: suitable for underground and above-ground pipelines

How to use

Install the valve into a DN160 pipeline according to local installation standards and ensure correct orientation and alignment of the flange or connection faces. Operate the gate mechanism to open or close flow as required; the valve provides clear on/off positions for flow control. Before commissioning, verify tightness of connections and perform a pressure test compatible with the system specifications. For underground installations, ensure appropriate chambering or protection to allow future access and operation.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the valve and adjacent pipeline for signs of leakage, corrosion or mechanical damage. Operate the gate periodically if required by maintenance schedules to prevent seizing. Use appropriate protective measures and follow local codes when installing or servicing the valve in underground environments.
