Grain rotary valve ZS

Overview and Operation: The m-tec® rotary valve combines the functions of sealing and continuous discharge from mixer buffer containers. It enables controlled and consistent product discharge, independent of the type of product and fill level, proportional to the rotation speed of the valve. This precise control of "forced discharge" prevents issues such as overfilling downstream conveying systems. Key Features and Advantages: Efficient Discharge Performance: Each valve is calibrated to the mixer’s production capacity, allowing for quasi-continuous production. Maintenance-Friendly: Equipped with large maintenance openings and tip switches for easy positioning of the rotor. Models ZS 1400 and ZS 2000 feature a split and removable longitudinal side, simplifying the quick replacement of wear strips. Cleaning Efficiency: Carefully designed chambers, combined with additional pneumatic cleaning, ensure residue-free discharge, making manual cleaning almost unnecessary during product changes. Specifications and Adaptability: Dimensions: Available in lengths from 0.4 m to 2 m. Grain Sizes: Suitable for dry construction materials up to a particle size of 8 mm, capable of processing up to 16 mm. Rotation Speed: Adjustable from 0 to 21 RPM, allowing flexible adaptation to various production conditions. Materials and Sealing: Fitted with special elastomer seals and Hardox housings for long service life and reliability. System Integration and Savings: The combination of m-tec® components—mixer, buffer container, rotary valve, and air belt conveyor—can lead to significant height savings in the plant, depending on mixer size, boosting overall efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
