Accurate feeding of powders or granules

RVC Drop-Through Rotary Valves with oblique V-shaped cross section compartments are a highly efficient solution for accurate feeding of powders or granules in a number of industries.

RVC Drop-Through Rotary Valves consist of a tubular cast iron or stainless steel casing, a horizontally mounted rotor with a certain number of oblique V-shaped cross section compartments, a drive unit and casing covers at both ends.

Function :

• Two compartments at a time of the continuously turning rotor are filled up with material entering through the inlet at the top of the Rotary Valve.
• After less than half a turn material falls through the bottom outlet opening having the same cross section as the opposite inlet.

Features :

• Feed rates: 5 ~ 80 litres per revolution
• Different drives for different rotation speeds
• Various materials and treatments available according to product handled
• Maximum differential pressure: 0.7 bar (11.6 PSI)
• Available as ATEX version, Zone 22

Benefits :

• Robust, compact design
• Standard open rotor with bevelled edges (except RVS80)
• Easy access to all internal mechanical part
