Tab/Blade

Model TDV Diverter

Tab/Blade Diverter Valves are engineered for precise material routing in gravity flow applications where a tight seal is essential. They are used for diverting material from a single inlet to either a through-leg or to a divert leg. These valves offer robust construction and O-ring seals on the blade shaft prevent dust leakage, keeping your process clean and efficient.

Product Bulletin

Application Data

Features & Options

Tab/Blade Diverter Valves are used in gravity flow bulk material applications where material needs to be diverted straight through and minimum dusting between the legs is acceptable. Two models are available: 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 valve’s actuator is directly coupled to the blade shaft. This arrangement distributes torque directly to the bucket shaft, eliminating stress to the valve components, which keeps production loss, downtime and maintenance cost to a minimum.
