Rotary Plug
Model TU Diverter
Young Industries' Rotary Plug Diverter Valves reliably direct bulk materials in pneumatic conveying or gravity flow systems. They prevent cross-contamination and minimize leakage for smooth, efficient operation.
Built with heavy-duty cast materials, these versatile valves provide a tight seal and long service life. A single valve can route material from one line to two, from two lines to one, or connect in series for complex routing.
Features & Options
The Rotary Plug Diverter Valve features precision-machined sealing surfaces, O-ring seals, and a closed rotor design. These valves provide a nearly leak-proof barrier between the atmosphere and diversion legs. The offset design of the diversion legs allows for efficient material routing with minimal product hang-up.
The direct-coupled actuator minimizes stress on components, while removable end plates simplify maintenance and reduce downtime.
