The Gravity Vee Diverter incorporates a “dual gate” design with independent controls. This allows material flow to be diverted through both outlet chutes simultaneously, each chute individually, or a complete material shut-off. For total control over flow rates, the Gravity Vee Diverter is also compatible with Vortex material flow control assemblies, in order to achieve proper batchweights, ensure accuracy and provide repeatability in the manufacturing process.
Ideal application: Replacement for conventional bucket diverters and flap diverters used to divert dry bulk solid materials from one source toward two destinations in gravity flow applications. The Vortex® Gravity Vee Diverter™ is ideal for use in high cycle applications.
Key Features
Allows material flow through both outlet chutes simultaneously, each chute individually, or a complete material shut-off
Replaceable bonnet seals for in-line maintenance
Live loaded, wear compensating hard polymer bonnet and side seals
The seals in each gate are protected by a series of deflectors and retainers, to reduce wear and extend service life
Positive seal of materials & dusts across the closed port(s) and to atmosphere
Mechanically self-cleans its seals with each actuation
No pinch points or exposed moving point for safety
No internal cavities to prevent wedging, lodging & spoilage
Flange and outlet chute angle options to match up with pre-existing footprints
Conveyance Type
Gravity flow only. Contact us to discuss suitability for use in low pressure/vacuum applications.
