Side Entry – Side discharge model Rotary Air Lock Valve lines are specially designed with
offset inlet and discharge opening to reduce product shearing while maintaining an efficient
product flow in conveying or metering applications.
The Valve name derives form the Offset inlet and outlet flanges, where product enters the
side of the rotor instead of top.
On a normal valve, shearing takes place as
rotor rotates into the housing. When these two
edges meet on a typical drop thru rotary Air
Lock the product is caught on the upswing of
the rotor blades so that the product is
constantly filling away from the shear point. The
rotor pockets also do not fill completely,
reducing the likehood of shearing. Lastly, the
through out has V shape which helps push
product out of the way.

• The Quick Clean Rotary Valves are
specially designed for application where
frequent cleaning, sanitizing or inspection
of the bulk handling system is required
with minimum down time. They are also
ideal for batch systems where regular
cleaning between cycles is required.
• The valve needs no tools to unscrew the
release handles and remove the head
plate. Four slide bars with linear bearings,
provide maximum support for the rotor. The rotor and head plate can be pulled out and
the valve can be thoroughly cleaned, sanitized and inspected.
• Re-assembly is quick and simplified as no special tools are required.
• Three design levels to meet your specific cleaning needs in stainless or polished sanitary.
SUPREME UNMATCHED FEATURES • Out board sealed bearings never need lubrication SUPREME COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES GENERAL SERVICE CONDITION
