|Airlock Rotary Valves
High-Performance Airlock Rotary Valves for Material Handling
Airlock rotary valves are critical components used in bulk material handling systems for controlled feeding, metering, and airlock sealing. They are widely used in industries such as cement, food processing, power plants, chemical, and pharmaceuticals for dust collection systems, pneumatic conveying, and feeding applications
Applications:
- Dust collection systems (bag filter / cyclone discharge)
- Pneumatic conveying of powders & granules
- Feeding coal, cement, fly ash, grains, flour, sugar, plastics
- Controlled discharge from silos, hoppers, and bins
- Power plants, cement plants, food & pharma industries
