Sym. Swing Gate
Model C Diverter
The Symmetrical Swing Gate Diverter Valve is widely used in both positive and negative pneumatic conveyor systems. All sealing surfaces are precision-machined, and the heavy-duty cast swing gate includes Teflon and neoprene sealing strips for a tight, reliable seal. Proven to provide superior performance in bulk materials handling, the Model C valve offers both reliability and low cost of ownership.
Features & Options
Model C Swing Gate Diverter Valve provide the lowest leakage in the industry. The gate shaft is supported by ball bearings for proper alignment, with the actuator directly coupled to the shaft to distribute torque evenly, reducing stress on components. Access to the valve is simple via removable side plates, allowing for maintenance without removing the valve from the system, minimizing downtime and production loss.
