Chemical Processing
Multi-source documentedMining
Manufacturer-documentedMunicipal Wastewater
Manufacturer-documentedWastewater treatment is named among the industries for the 5-family metal-replacement set — industry-list evidence, not a wastewater-specific spec. The MAV pairing matters here: gate valves are multi-turn, so the quarter-turn CAV/SAV actuators do not apply and MAV is the only Series 19 sub-model rated for them.
Chemical compatibility
No documented chemical-compatibility record yet for this category — a spec review is the right next step before specifying against a specific chemical.

Frequently Asked Questions
What industries use Gate Valve?
LibertyCES has documented Gate Valve specified across 3 sector applications, including Chemical Processing, Mining and Municipal Wastewater.
How is Gate Valve used in Chemical Processing?
Gate Valve is specified for Chemical Processing applications — examples include Asahi/America Type P Gate Valve (High Impact PVC body, flanged ANSI, EPDM or optional FKM seals; 2"-8" standard and 1-1/2"-8" in 'P' Type PP; three real pressure tiers — 150psi @70°F for 1-1/2"-8", 110psi for 10", 75psi for 12" and 14"; ISO 5752 short pattern; ASTM PVC D1784 CC 12454-A, PP D4101 CC PP0210B67272), Asahi/America Series 19 MAV MultiPack electric actuator (1/2"-4", pairs with diaphragm AND gate valves). This is well-documented in LibertyCES's field data.
