The Vortex\u00ae Clear Action Gate\u2122 is designed for use in gravity flow or pneumatic conveying systems up to 15 psig (1 barg) depending on size. Mounted horizontally, the machined square-edged blade of this gate mechanically clears the material from the sealing surfaces on each closing cycle allowing it to discharge beneath the valve.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Positive seal of materials\/dust-tight seal across the blade and to atmosphere
\n\u2022 Live loaded, wear compensating hard polymer pressure plate seals
\n\u2022 Enhance conveying efficiency by preventing air loss
\n\u2022 Constructed from specialized metals and polymers for application-specific durability
\n\u2022 An optional air purge assembly keeps fine materials in the flow stream to prevent them from accumulating in the gate body
\n\u2022 Stainless steel liners protect the gate\u2019s seals from material flow
\n\u2022 No pinch points or exposed moving parts for safety
\n\u2022 Horizontal or vertical orientation
\n\u2022 Narrow profile for limited space applications<\/p>\n

Gravity flow & dilute phase pneumatic conveying applications. Can handle differential pressures up to 15 psig | 1 barg | 0.1 MPa, depending on gate size. Can be used in pressure or vacuum systems.<\/p>\n
Non-abrasive to moderately abrasive powders, pellets, and granules. Modifications are available for handling corrosive materials and\/or for wash-down.<\/p>\n
Available in round sizes. Square, round or rectangular mating flanges are available.<\/p>\n
Standard stud bolt pattern, ANSI #125\/150, DIN PN10, JIS 10, Custom flanges are available<\/p>\n
Double-acting air cylinder, hand wheel\/crank, chain wheel, electric actuator<\/p>\n
Magnetic reed, proximity or mechanical limit switches, and\/or clear bonnet cover for visual indication<\/p>\n
Sealed-Body Air Purge Special Service Inlet<\/p>\n
ATEX Zone 20 (internal), ATEX Zone 21 (external), FDA<\/p>\n
The gate inlet and outlet have 10 gauge flanges with bolt pattern to match a 125\/150# ANSI bolt pattern.<\/p>\n
Gate blade is electro-polished. Polyethylene (PET or UHMW) pressure plate seals are used to replace nylon. *Additional modifications available based on application.<\/p>\n
