Drilling Mud Equipment Tank Control Valve For Drilling Mud Tank

Mud Tank Control Valve is called Mud Tank Suction Valves, and it is the important spare parts in mud tank. Mud Tank Control Valve is the mud control equipment installed in the inside of mud tanks or water tanks. It is used to import mud or liquid phase and prevent different nature of mud or liquid

Mud Tank Control Valve is called Mud Tank Suction Valves, and it is the important spare parts in mud tank. Mud Tank Control Valve is the mud control equipment installed in the inside of mud tanks or water tanks. It is used to import mud or liquid phase and prevent different nature of mud or liquid in both side of mud tank to mix with each other.

12" Oilfield Mud Tank Valves Mounted In Mud Tank For Solids Control System

Mud tank suction valves are widely used in oil drilling solids control. Based on decade solids control development, the mud tank suction valve was designed and innovated. It is a special valve for better pipeline control on tank bottom

Mud tank valves type

Actually, for mud tank the valves are various kind. Such as gate valve, butterfly valve, suction valve, dump valve, equalizer valve, and so on. The mud tank valves we are talking are customer-built valves fabricated in welding shop with carbon steel or other raw material. Not the standard ones with same look or exact dimension.

At the beginning we have the tank suction valves configured with handle wheel (We call it screw type operator). Now more and more users prefer suction valve with lever handle. Since the lever handle request less space and provide more convenience during operation. Moreover, lever type suction valves request less cost.

Popular suction valves size are 6″, 8″, 10″, and 12″. For detail dimension or size, they can be manufactured to suit various customers’ tank depth, suction height, suction line requirements and other special requirements

Tank valve operator

Mud tank valves operator is the way we switch valve. There are mainly screw and lever operator. The lever will be usually with lever pipe, while screw operator will be usually mounted with hand wheel.

One of our clients ever requested the lever with flip handle switch (similar as the handle switch of lights or main power in house) This will be more comfortable and easy operation since it is ergonomically designed

To select mud tank valves should consider followings. Tank size, Flow pattern, Operator mean, Manufacturer professionalism, Actual feedback on quality and performance, Price or the Cost-efficiency.

Feature of mud tank valves by Aipu solids control  

• The polished design adds structural integrity for a longer valve lifetime.

• Designed to make operation easier and reduce actuator size.

• Dirty water can wash out and escape the drive area, instead of drying or compacting over time, which can cause thread damage and failure.

• Our standard base design creates a bubble-tight seal around common debris, ensuring leak-free operation.

• As opposed to older fabrication techniques, our casting process enables our valves to have fewer components and joints, reducing the likelihood of failures.

• Configured for easy disassembly in the case of maintenance or replacement.

• Unique to our stainless steel design, the grout pocket allows the grout to be flush with the drain hole, enabling tanks to empty completely. 

The tank valve height calculation

Firstly, confirm the valve body pipe size. Some valves made of the same tubes on both body and connection port, while some are different.

Then, confirm the tank height. The internal height.

Thirdly, confirm the internal pipe level.

Finally, if any special requirements on handling on the tank top.

Based on the above information, supplier or manufacturers can provide a general drawing. Against confirmation, the mud tank valve can be finished easily.
