VfllVSS FOR CRY ILLS TIOCESSIHG 6 CONVEYING The Vortex Quantum Qrifice Gate is specifically engineered to handle dry bulk solids in gravity flow, dilute phase, or vacuum conveying systems with pressures up to 15 psig (1 barg). Traditional slide gates and butterfly valves commonly allow packing of material which prevents positive air and material shutoff. ^ DILUTE PHASE PNEUMATIC CONVEYING (Pressure orVacuum) □ DENSE PHASE PNEUMATIC CONVEYING $7}]\ Handles powders, granules Mechanically self cleans on opening stroke No pinch points or exposed moving parts for safe operation Wear compensating...

The Vortex Roller Gate is the best choice for handling dry material in gravity flow applications. This gate is available in a wide vareity of configurations including rectangular sizes and customer specific hole patterns. It ha live-loaded seals that extend service life by compensating for wear. These seals provide an excellent material seal accross the gate and to atmosphere. They can also be replaced while the valve is in-line.

DUAL CYLINDER 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 325mm Roller Gate below a screw conveyor 150mm Roller Gate below hopper handling flour 650mm Dual Cylinder Roller Gate SINGLE CYLINDER For a complete list of specifications, modifications, dimensional drawings and measurements, visit WWW.VORTEXVALVES.COM ROLLER GATE VORTEX VALVES

Designed to address higher-pressure applications up to 75 psig (5barg) depending on size, the Vortex HDPV2 sets itself apart from traditional industry slide gates. The rising blade design provides positive material shut-off by means of an O-ring seal on the inlet of the valve. This design feature eliminates the issues related to packing or material causing abrasion to the end seal.

The air purge is used to pressurize the bonnet and keep material in the flow stream Lifting lugs and inserts provide a positive seal and prevent metal-on-metal contact 400mm HDP above airlock handling calcium oxide 300mm HDP above and below a pressure pot handling PRB coal and wood chips The silicone blade seal is recessed to protect it from material flow and to reduce wear For a complete list of specifications, modifications, dimensional drawings and measurements, visit WWW.VORTEXVALVES.COM VORTEX VALVES

The Vortex Clear Action Gate is designed for use in gravity flow or pneumatic conveying systems up to 15 psig (1 barg) depending on size. Mounted horizontally, the machined squareedged blade of this gate mechanically clears the material from the sealing surfaces on each closing cycle allowing it to dishcarge beneath the valve. Open cavities where material collects in traditional gate valves have been eliminated with the square blade and seal design.
