The Vortex Pivoting Chute Diverter

5 Aug 2025  |
The Vortex Pivoting Chute Diverter is designed to optimize material handling in gravity-fed applications, especially for heavy-duty, abrasive dry bulk materials.

Its pivoting chute mechanism efficiently redirects materials to one of two or three discharge outlets, ensuring smooth flow with minimal degradation to preserve product quality.

Built for durability, it features abrasion-resistant liners and replaceable wetted components like the actuator, pivoting chute, and wear bars—all of which can be replaced in-line without removing the diverter, minimizing downtime and maintenance costs.

A removable access panel allows for quick inspections and maintenance, making it suitable for demanding environments. The diverter offers flexibility with its compatibility with material flow control assemblies, allowing users to direct or split material flow as needed.

For larger valves, optional chute removal assist rods simplify handling during maintenance.

Designed for gravity-fed systems, its robust construction and ease of maintenance make it a reliable solution for industries handling abrasive materials.
