Valves convey pharmaceutical powders safely
Leading valve manufacturer Rota Val has designed and produced a novel range of diverter valves for the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
The valves were assembled in various configurations to meet the customer's needs, allowing right or left diversion or even inverted installation.
Normally supplied with junction boxes attached to the valves, the TBS65 valves were provided with remote control facilities to interface with the customer's existing PLC plant control system.
To speed installation, all valves were fully wired and tested before despatch, ensuring that all electrical and pneumatic components would function effectively.
The valves are available in various standard sizes from 65 to 300mm, in materials such as cast aluminium, iron or stainless steel to suit the application.
They are designed for lean, dense phase or vacuum conveying systems and will operate at up to 4.5bar gauge.
Inflatable seals ensure that conveyed products are fully contained, reducing emissions, and the diverter valve design eliminates particle erosion at the interface between the rotating plug and the valve body to ensure that leak-free performance is maintained throughout the life of the valve.
The valves have a constant bore diameter to facilitate conveying of all types of product, even materials prone to clumping and very fine powders.
Standard features will cope with abrasive materials and temperatures from -10 to +80C; optional specifications can be applied to handle materials at temperatures from -110 to +500C.
