Manual Slide Gates For Hoppers

Unlike other manual slide valves the dsv doesn t use an eccentric cam to support the slide gate.

Manual slide gates for hoppers.

Our tapered supports set on an angle can be easily replaced while the slide gate remains in situ and in the closed position. Drain tube minimum 4 in. These gates deliver a positive shut off of material flow for service or replacement of the system rotary valve without the hopper being emptied. Ideal for dry bulk material handling meyer made knife gates and slide gates are reliable and designed to isolate airlock feeders below from hoppers above.

Based on plastic pellet material with an average bulk density of 35 40 lbs ft3 complete with. With manual slide gate 45 or 60 degree hopper. Sight glass minimum 4 in. Slide gates consist of a rigid frame with a slide plate located inside that opens and closes against the flow of material.

The slide plate can be actuated by manual pneumatic electric or hydraulic means. The purpose of a slide gate below a surge hopper is to shut off material flow so it will not leak to the atmosphere or pressurize the equipment below in most cases. Slide gates consist of a rigid frame mounted to the bottom of the storage device or conveyor. The slide gate control of our plastic cyclone hopper bin is very easy to use and highly effective at controlling the flow of products out of the bin.

Meyer maintenance slide gates are economical and reliable components used to isolate rotary valves below from hoppers above to control gravity batch unloading. Extend the service life of the valve and 2. Stock sizes range from 6 to 24 with both 10 gauge and 8 gauge galvanized metal body options. The knife gate and sliding gate valves help control gravity batch unloading when handling dry free flowing materials.

Ideal for handling dry bulk material in gravity flow dilute phase or dense phase pneumatic conveying applications. Manual operated rack and pinion slide gates are the most common option. One 1 welded carbon steel surge bin leg type with a 45 or 60 degree hopper bottom and a working capacity of between 500 and 10 000 lbs. Kws slide gates are used to control the discharge of bulk materials from hoppers bins silos or conveyors.

A slide plate is located inside the frame that either opens or closes against the flow of material. The best type of slide gates to install below surge hoppers are roller gates for sticky materials or orifice gates if you need to seal differential pressures. Vortex valves serve many industries including chemical cement coal food. The dsv slide gate valve has externally replaceable slide gate supports.

Perform maintenance without taking the valve out of line.
