Vortex 3-way Wye Line Diverter

Vortex Valves & GatesLeave a comment

• Patented design – seal plates are shielded from blast abrasion
• Positive material and air seal in vacuum or pressure systems up to 15 psig
• Self-cleaning on each actuation
• 2″ – 8″ tube and pipe sizes
• Metric Sizes Available
• Designed specifically to handle dry material.
• Original Patented Vortex Design

The Vortex 3-way Wye Line Diverter offers positive sealing in both vacuum and pressure conveying systems. The scissor material shearing action allows the valve to be reliably diverted on a stream of material when required. The Wye Line is bi-directional and may be used as a diverter or a converger.

• Designed for gravity applications of abrasive, dry material
• Removable access door for inspection or maintenance — bucket, inlet, and special liners may be replaced without taking valve out of place.
• 6″ – 18″ square sizes
• Metric Sizes Available
• “A” and “K” style available

The Vortex Aggregate Diverter handles abrasive material such as sand, gravel, whole grains, and coal. Optional modifications are available for extremely abrasive applications where cross-contamination or material spoilage is not an issue.

Vortex Iris Valve

Vortex Valves & GatesLeave a comment

• Durable yet lightweight
• Low maintenance
• Easy sleeve replacement
• Aluminum or stainless steel
• 4″ – 18″ sizes
• Metric Sizes Available
• Designed specifically to handle dry material.
• Patent No. 7021604

The Vortex Iris Valve offers a reliable valve to control the gravity discharge of free-flowing dry bulk material from bins, bulk bags, chutes and hoppers. A form-fitted, fabric sleeve provides a dust tight seal and a product barrier so material does not leak to atmosphere or come in contact with the valve’s actuating parts. This is an excellent valve for handling delicate or “friable” products.

Vortex HDP Slide Gate

Vortex Valves & GatesLeave a comment

• Isolates pressures up to 5 bars (75 psig)
• Will not leak to atmosphere or across valve
• Reduces / eliminates material packing
• Can handle abrasive applications
• Is easy to maintain
• Designed specifically to handle dry material.
• Patent No. 7163191
• Metric Sizes Available

The Vortex HDP slide gate contains a patent pending, self-adjusting blade and clevis. This feature allows the blade to slide horizontally and then rise vertically into the closed / sealed position. Seal contact and associated seal wear is greatly minimized. Wedging and packing of material into a valve seat is eliminated.

Vortex “Keeper” Maintenance Gate

Vortex Valves & GatesLeave a comment

• Positive material and air seal up to 15 psig to atmosphere in a closed system
• Spring loaded, wear compensating seals
• Narrow profile
• 6″ – 16″ round, square or rectangular sizes
• Metric Sizes Available
• Stainless steel metal material contact points

The Vortex “Keeper” Maintenance Gate valve provides a positive material and air seal to atmosphere when installed in a closed system. This makes it an excellent choice for handling products such as fine powders in dilute phase (up to 15 psig) pneumatic conveying systems. The narrow profile makes it easily adaptable to existing installations. Overall, it is an economical and reliable means to shut off material flow for system maintenance. The Vortex Maintenance Gate is designed for low cycle applications.
