Blade Diverter Valve Application Information
The Blade Diverter Valves are designed for mounting on a gravity discharge line to divert from a single inlet to one straight through leg or one divert leg and were cross over dusting is minimized.
The Young Industries, Inc. Blade Diverter Valves are used in a wide variety of gravity flow bulk material applications were material needs to be diverted straight through or to a 30° or 45° and were a minimum dusting between the legs is acceptable. The diverter blade is constructed with flexible urethane to provide a seal.
The Blade Diverter Valve is designed for a 2 PSIG internal or external pressure. It is available in standard sizes from 4" through 16" square flange sizes. Round flange are available.
Two Models of the Blade Diverter Valve are offered. One model has 30°diversion leg offset and the other has a 45 °diversion leg offset. The change of direction is accomplished by changing the position of the blade from one line to the other by a rotary actuator.
The Blade Diverter Valve has heavy construction along and the valve's actuator is direct coupled to the blade shaft . This arrangement distributes torque directly to the bucket shaft, eliminating stress to the valve components.This keeps production loss, downtime and maintenance cost to a minimum.
Flange Mounted Bearing provide a smooth operation.
"O" ring seals on each end of the blade shaft prevent dust leakage to exterior. The flange mounted bearing provide smooth and rugged operation.
The Young industries Blade Diverter Valves are available with a variety of features to handle a wide range of process requirements.
