Additional Vortex Valve Product Information
 
Clean by design Other slide gates typically contain ledges where material have the opportunity to cross-contaminate and spoil.  Internal ledges have been eliminated in the Vortex Roller Gate valve.

Metal material contact points in the Vortex Roller Gate valve are 304 stainless steel.  Materials of construction meet FDA requirements.  This is an excellent slide gate for food grade applications.

   
Dust tight Pressure loaded, hard polymer seals are located above and below the blade.  A pressure loaded UHMW polyethylene end liner seals the leading edge of the blade.

 

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