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.
