Additional Vortex Valve Product Information
 
Heavy duty features Standard features include:
  • Nylon blade guide / gate liner – extends service life and eliminates metal on metal contact (and associated binding problems) between blade and gate.
  • Greasable hardened steel rollers – easily accessible
  • Abrasion resistant, reinforced rubber seals
  • Heavy-duty material deflectors – protects seals and rollers.
  • Material displacement pocket – minimizes wedging of material upon gate closure. Provides material shut off, even if material prevents full gate closure.
   
Heavy duty options Optional features include:
  • AR plate (abrasion resistant) blade
  • Carbon steel return pan – for applications requiring zero external material leakage.
  • High temperature modifications – up to 600° F
  • Protective bellow for actuator shaft
  • Choice of actuators

 

Vortex valves are applied based on 28 years of customer-proven application experience.
