'''Rotary Airlock Valves''' are used in a wide range of applications where there is a need to minimize system air losses while transferring material between vessels with differing pressures.Rotary airlock valves are employed for vacuum or pressure looking to discharge continuous flow of materials. It is offered in CI or steel or stainless steel material. | |||
The primary function of a rotary airlock valve is to regulate the flow from one chamber to another while maintaining a good airlock condition. The product is mainly in dry powder or granular from. | |||
==Applications== | |||
* Silo discharge:The rotary valve placed under the silo or dust collection system is used to control the bulk solid discharge. | |||
* Dosage control:By controlling the rotation speed of the airlock feeder, volumetric metering and dosing of granular solids is achieved. | |||
* Pneumatic transportation:The airlock mounted under a cyclone is used for discharging the cyclone. | |||
