Quick Clean Orifice Gate Handling Whey Protein, Rotary Valves – Air Leakage and Performance, Kice Introduces New VJX Airlock Valve and New Dust Hound Compact, High-Efficiency Cyclone: A little Dog With a Big Appetite!
A health food company was looking for a solution to stop the flow of materials in a gravity flow application, but also required frequent wash-downs. The indoor valve must be capable of handling 16-18 kgs./m³ (35-40 lbs./ft³) of material in the presence of vibrations.
All rotary valves leak air (or gas) even where there is no pressure differential as even the product entering the valve displaces air into the inlet area. This is significantly increased when operating under a pressure differential due to losses past the operational clearances and carry-over of pockets of high pressure decompressing into the inlet.
Would you like to see less maintenance, reduced downtime and lower overall operating costs from your airlock valve? We’d like to bring this to your application with our new VJX Airlock valve. The VJX airlock gives users less maintenance, reduced downtime and lower overall operating costs.
Now it’s easier for you to cut filter replacement and maintenance costs. The new Aerodyne Dust Hound GPC cyclone is priced like a basic cyclone but filters more dust in a smaller space. Used as a pre-filter for your baghouse or cartridge collector, Dust Hound’s high removal efficiency extends filter life and lowers maintenance costs.
There are a few rotors to choose from, and not all of them will treat your material the way it needs to be treated. Here’s our breakdown of each kind of rotor and how it works, to give you a better idea of what could work best for your application. Continue reading »
