FLUIDTECQ Intelligent Knife Gate Valves: Powering the Future of Seamless Automation

The era of the “dumb” valve is over!

The Era of the “Dumb” Valve Is Over-2

For decades, Knife Gate Valves have been the silent workhorses of industrial processes—rugged, reliable, and indispensable for handling slurries, powders, viscous media, and harsh operating conditions.  
But in today’s hyper-efficient, data-driven industrial world, a purely mechanical valve simply cannot keep up.

The FLUIDTECQ Smart KGV—where mechanical strength meets engineered intelligence.  
We’re not just upgrading a valve; we’re redefining what a Knife Gate Valve can be.


The Real Intelligence: Deep Application Know-How

FLUIDTECQ’s advantage goes far beyond adding smart components.  
Our 36-year legacy has shaped us into solution architects, not product sellers.

A Smart KGV required by:

  • a Dairy OEM handling CIP liquids,  
    is fundamentally different from one required in
  • a Cement Plant fighting abrasive dust.

Our strength lies in knowing exactly what changes, why it matters, and how to engineer it right.

We tailor every intelligent package on three pillars:

  1. Media & Pressure – The right body, seal, seat, and packing configuration.
  2. Environment – Weatherproof, flameproof, sanitary, or corrosive-area enclosures.
  3. Control Requirements – Whether the process demands Solenoid-based ON/OFF or Positioner-based precise modulation.

This application intelligence is the backbone of the FLUIDTECQ Smart KGV.


The FLUIDTECQ Q-Point Advantage: Where Quality Meets Intelligence

With the Smart KGV, we deliver an engineered solution—not just a valve package.  
The Q-Point (Quality-Point) Advantage gives OEMs and users four superior benefits:

1. Application-Specific Engineering

Precisely specified for the actual process—no mismatches, no guesswork.

2. Quick-to-Integrate

Each Smart KGV is shipped as a single, pre-tested, integrated, ready-to-install system:  
Valve + Actuator + Solenoid/Positioner + Limit Switches + FRL.  
This reduces installation time, wiring errors, and commissioning delays.

3. Quality-Assured Reliability

One supplier. One responsibility.  
All components designed to work seamlessly—even in extreme industrial environments.

4. Quantitative Intelligence & Precision

Real-time feedback, accurate modulation, and enhanced control logic.  
Your automation system gains better flow control, safer interlocks, and data-backed performance.


What Makes It “Intelligent”?

Beyond Just Open–Close**

The Smart KGV’s intelligence comes from the synergy of its integrated components:

  • Pneumatic Actuator – The power unit delivering controlled, consistent actuation.
  • Solenoid Valve (ON/OFF) – Converts electrical commands into fast, repeatable open–close actions.
  • Positioner (Modulating Control) – Accepts analog signals and positions the gate precisely for any intermediate flow requirement.
  • Limit Switch Assembly – The gate’s “eyes,” confirming open/close positions and communicating this to the control system.

Together, these create a closed-loop intelligent valve system that supports both simple operations and advanced flow modulation.


Become a First-Mover in Intelligent Flow Control

Shifting to the FLUIDTECQ Smart KGV transforms your process from manual or semi-automated operation to a fully engineered, intelligent flow-control system.

Instead of just installing a valve, you deploy:

  • Intelligence
  • Reliability
  • Precision
  • Application-specific engineering

…wrapped into one unified, future-ready solution.
