A pressure rotary lock is a system of two rotary valves interconnected by a pressurization chamber. The pressure rotary locks enable pressureless feeding or discharge of powders or liquids to or from overpressure or vacuum-pressure areas. The pressure rotary locks are installed at gravity transfer points at a maximum pressure differential up to 10 bars. If ATEX 95 certified, the pressure rotary locks can be operated in Ex-zones or as standalone explosion isolation systems. Applications Discharge of powders / liquids from overpressure or vacuum-pressure areas; Feeding of powders / liquids to overpressure or vacuum-pressure areas; Dispensing of powders / liquids; Explosion isolation in Ex-zones; Examples of installation locations: outlet connections of cyclone separators, air filters, or dryers. Technical specification A complete pressure rotary lock with automatic aeration / deaeration of the pressurization chamber; Optional ATEX-certified versions available on request; Optional DMT-certified flame-arrester versions with resistance to violent pressure shockwaves; Double-wall casing permits heating; Nominal diameter range: DN 50 to DN 1200, PN6 to PN 16; Max. pressure differential ≤ 10 bar (DN size dependent). Scope of works Selection of optimized unit; Delivery and installation; Inspection and servicing.
