Its sturdy construction comprises a resilient silicone O-ring seal (durometer 70) and a bonnet seal cartridge with a PTFE-treated packing gland, specifically designed to exhibit outstanding wear resistance and durability. The gate boasts a unique sliding blade design, ensuring thorough self-cleaning with each actuation, thereby reducing material carryback and minimizing actuation complications.
Furthermore, the gate’s Special Service Inlet affords protection to the O-ring seal against direct material contact, thereby enhancing the seal’s durability and ensuring a positive seal with minimal maintenance requirements. With the added convenience of external blade adjustability for restoring compression load against the O-ring seal, the Vortex HDP Gate stands as a testament to our unwavering commitment in delivering technically superior, customer-oriented solutions for a wide array of pneumatic conveying applications.
