Dump valves and terminal boxes Dump valves are used where a number of hoppers positioned in series require selective feeding. They have two operating conditions, ‘straight through’ and ‘dump’. In the straight through condition, a self-inflating easily replaceable seal closes off the respective hopper inlet, allowing the material to be conveyed ‘straight through’ to the next available reception point. Switch valves These types of valves are used for diverting flow in any pneumatic conveying lines or hopper discharge applications and are particularly suitable for abrasive materials. They can...
