The suction valves acts as a control valve in the use of drilling mud tanks that are used to control the mud flow during the system operation or mud reserve. It plays an important role in the whole solids control system.
Mud tank valves including the suction valves and dump valve. The material can be common butterfly valves, seamless tube, even the stainless steel.
Considering the fluids flow pattern, mud tank valves can be customized into T pattern and cross type, the difference is the suction port design.
According to the pipeline configuration in mud tanks, there are 6", 8", 10" and 12" valves for users' options

| Color | Customized |
| Valves length | Customized |
| Material | Common butterfly valves, seamless tube, and SS |

At the beginning we have the mud tank suction valves configured with a handle wheel, we call it screw type operator. Now we have valves with lever handle for choice as more and more users prefer.
Popular mud tank valves are 8" and 10". For detailed dimensions or sizes, they can be manufactured to suit various customers' tank depth, suction height, suction line requirement, and other special requirements.
The material used for O-Ring for Disc Plunger assembly and other seals used on the flange end is Viton synthetic rubber for high temperature resistance.
How to maintain the suction valve in our routine work to make sure its performance, there are some tips for your information
1. Make sure the correct installation and removal of the suction valve.
2. To inspect the o-ring and gasket at various locations, replace them if they are damaged.
3. To check if the bearing is flexible or damaged.
4. Apply a proper amount of butter to the screw after checking the installation and fill the oil cup with better to ensure that the handwheel rotates flexibly.
The mud tank suction valve varies much with different mud tanks' designs. But the general design and cost are similar. For example, 8" mud tank suction valve with screw type operator and T port average price is about USD900. If you need official please give us detailed requirements such as length, color.. and quantity. Any questions or interests will be highly welcome.
Firstly, confirm the valve body pipe size. some valves made of the same tubes on both body and connection port, while part of is different. Then confirm the mud tank height, it's internal height. Thirdly, confirm the internal pipe level. Finally, if any special requirement on handling on the tank top. Based on the above information, AIPU solids control can provide a general drawing. Against confirmation, the mud tank suction valve can be finished easily.
