About Rotary Air Lock Valve
Airlock valve,also named discharge valve,star discharger, cindervalve,is an important equipment for pneumatic conveying system and dust removal system.It is mainly used to discharge the material continuously from the tripper and dust collector,and make sure the inner pressure not exposed to atmosphere pressure evironment.The airlock valve is made of gear motor,sealing element,impellers and rotor housing on which many rotating blades are set.It is capable of discharging powder,small particles,flaky or fibre continuously by the differential pressure of material.Now it has been widely used in chemical,pharmacy,drying,grains,cement,environmental protection and power industry etc.
Precision Material ControlOur rotary air lock valve guarantees minimal air leakage thanks to its air-tight end-plate sealing system. The 8-vane rotor ensures consistent material metering and discharge, supporting stable pneumatic or mechanical conveying for various industries. Its direct or chain-drive mechanism offers flexibility to match different process requirements.
Built for Durability and VersatilityManufactured using robust materials like cast iron, stainless steel, or your required alloys, this valve is suitable for demanding environments. Its standardized flange connections and customizability of vane count or flange sizes allow seamless integration into existing processing systems, catering to a wide customer base.
Effortless Operation and MaintenanceWith an adjustable rotor speed (10-30 RPM) and an easy-to-dismantle design, this valve streamlines upkeep and operational changes. Continuous duty cycle support means less downtime, and simple repair procedures help reduce maintenance costs for end-users, dealers, and facility operators alike.
