Overpressure and vacuum flap

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Stanelle Overpressure and Vacuum Flap, Type SDAK, is designed as a safety mechanism for silos filled pneumatically. It addresses both overpressure and vacuum conditions, ensuring optimal protection through its maintenance-free construction.
Operation: The flaps, supported by ball bearings, open in response to internal or external pressure changes. The rubber-coated flap discs remain dust-tight when closed. A vacuum flap opens at a negative pressure exceeding 5 mbar, allowing outside air to balance the pressure. Overpressure within the silo triggers the flap to open, releasing excess pressure. The design ensures that the actuating pressure remains manageable.
Specifications: The SDAK flaps are available in steel and various stainless steels, with standard diameters of 150 mm and 300 mm. Optional proximity switches can be installed. For enclosed spaces, an exhaust air connection pipe is available to direct escaping air through pipelines. The finish is hammertone silver gray.
Advantages: The system is nearly maintenance-free, with long-life lubricated bearings. The outlet opening is fully effective due to weighted flap discs, and the overpressure range is adjustable.
Technical Data:
  • Diameter Options: 150 mm, 300 mm
  • Overpressure Capacity: 60 mbar
  • Vacuum Capacity: 5 mbar
  • Temperature Limit: 80 °C
  • Maximum Air Capacity: 2200 m³/h (150 mm), 8500 m³/h (300 mm)
  • Weight: 45 kg (150 mm), 235 kg (300 mm)
Dimensions: Detailed dimensions are provided for both 150 mm and 300 mm models, including various measurements for installation and operation.

Overpressure and vacuum flap-1

Overpressure and Vacuum Flap Stanelle – Always the best solution Type SDAK For highest silo safety through optimum pressure balance Areas of application: The Stanelle-Overpressure and Vacuum Flap, Type SDAK, is a safety organ for silos which are lled pneumatically. Overpressure as well as vacuum – the latter arising from exhaust fans or through cornice collapses – can be balanced because of the combined design of the pressure aps. The optimum protection of the silo is guaranteed through the maintenance-free construction of the SDAK aps. Operation: The weighted, ball bearing supported aps are opened through the outside, respectively inside pressure of the silos. In the unopened position the rubber-coated aps discs are dust-tight. With a negative pressure of more than 5 mbar the vacuum ap is opened through the outside pressure. Outside air can stream into the silo for pressure balance. When overpressure occurs in the silo interior, the ap, with an adjustable weight, opens. The excessive pressure can be neutralized via the ap opening. The special design guarantees that the actuating pressure does not increase excessively and the outlet opening can respond.

As an option the ap can be tted with proximity switches. For use on silos and containers in enclosed halls the ap can be supplied with an exhaust air connection pipe so that the air escaping from the silo can be led away through pipelines.
