Like any rotary airlock valve, its function is to allow the flow of the product, without letting the air escape. This model is designed so as not to deteriorate the size of the product particles.
Its main application is for products that must be handled delicately and do not want to break or deteriorate, such as grains, feed or pellets, flakes, balanced food, pet food, etc.
Made of steel or stainless-steel sheets, which does not allow it to be used with high pressures.
Taking into account that it is designed mainly to not deteriorate the size of the product particles, our HSC rotary lock valve has among its most notable applications its use in the discharge of dryers and coolers.
Drying and cooling feed and food
We build cooler and dryers lines, including their cyclones, filters, fans, controls and automation. Our coolers and dryers work under the counterflow principle, where […]

Calculations
Capacity (Ton/h) = Co x ρ x n x α / 100
Where:
Co (m3/h x r.p.m) = Capacity with
rate of filling of 100 % per r.p.m. See table.
ρ (Ton/m3) = Specific weight
n (r.p.m) = Revolutions per minute
α (%) = Rate of filling
