LOADING SOLUTIONS
The Vortex® Aero-Slide™ Drum Valve is a self-contained unit that prevents material packing, dusting to atmosphere and other valve failures.
Ideal application: The Aero-Slide Drum Valve is specifically designed to be used in tandem with the Vortex® Aero-Slide™ Conveyor. Unlike the Vortex® Aero-Slide™ Gate Valve, which is primarily intended for material shut-off, the Aero-Slide Drum Valve is well-designed for metering material flow. The Aero-Slide Drum Valve features a rotating, cylindrical-shaped blade with a V-notched bore. This provides for more precise metering control.
Dust-tight to atmosphere
Can shut-off or meter material flow
No bonnet area. Therefore, material migration and its associated actuation issues are prevented
Optional Dual cylinder configuration for installation beneath a silo
