Roller Gate

Vortex Quantum Series Gravity Flow – The Vortex Roller Gate is the best choice for handling dry material in gravity flow or low-pressure applications. This gate is available in a wide variety of configurations including rectangular sizes and customer specific hole patterns. It has live-loaded seals that extend the service life by compensating for wear. These seals provide an excellent material seal across the gate and to atmosphere. They can also be replaced while the valve is in-line. Similar slide gates have seals made of soft packing, rubber or felt, which rapidly erode away allowing product leakage.

Detaljer

The bonnet seals can be replaced while in-line to decrease downtime.

A special service inlet can be added to deflect material away from seals and rollers to reduce wear.

Top blade seal & cam adjustable rollers supply smooth linear actuation and in-line adjustments.

Fördelar

Unlike on many other valves, the Roller Gate has no metal on metal causing metal galling. This results in the seizing and binding of the gate as well as the introduction of foreign metal into the product being handled.

Cleanliness by design: Traditional roller supported slide gates have ledges where materials build up. The ledges have been eliminated in the Vortex Roller Gate minimizing material cross-contamination and spoilage.

Vortex Roller Gates provides long-term and reliable service in applications where carbon steel slide gates corrode which leads to seizing and binding.
