A 2-1/2'' Gate Valve is used to control and isolate the flow of water within large-diameter pipelines. It operates by raising or lowering a gate (disc) inside the valve body, allowing full flow when open and tight shut-off when closed. This type of valve is designed for on/off control, not for throttling, ensuring minimal flow resistance and reliable performance in critical fire protection systems.
