Extended Length

Model HC & LH

Need to move more material in a tight space? When space is at a premium and high discharge rates are critical, our Extended Length Rotary Valves make all the difference. They offer the same rugged construction and reliable performance as our standard models (Model LH, Model SE, and Model HC) with an eight-vane rotor that ensures a constant two-blade seal for minimal air or gas leakage. These valves feature rectangular flanged inlet and discharge connections, and a "Double Length" rotor that offers 2x throughput capacity compared our standard square flanged models — all without increasing height.

Application Data

Features & Options

Young Industries Extended Length Rotary Valves are engineered to withstand the specific pressures and temperatures of your application. We carefully calculate the rotor shaft size based on differential pressure, operating temperature, and rotor length, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.

These rugged valves feature the same robust design as our standard models: precision-machined housings, outboard bearings, and a tight two-blade seal for minimal air or gas leakage. Plus, we offer a wide range of options to customize your valve, from high-pressure and high-temperature designs to specialized materials and coatings.

Features
  • Heavy duty construction with 15 PSIG internal and differential pressure rating.
  • Fabricated construction of carbon steel or 300 series stainless steel. 
  • Standard design/operating temperature up to 250°F. 
  • Outboard-mounted precision ball bearings. 
  • Packing gland provides a tight rotor shaft seal with four rings of PTFE impregnated Kevlar. 
  • Open or shrouded rotors. 
  • End plates are piloted to assure concentricity of the housing so that tight internal clearances between rotor and housing is provided. 
Options
  • High internal pressure designs up to 150 PSIG
  • High temperature designs up to 1,000°F
  • Sizes from 4″ up to 36″ with double length styles  
  • Roller chain drive with parallel shaft TEFC driven gearmotor is standard with explosion proof motors of any specified manufacturer available  
  • Shaft mounted drive is available
  • Special materials of construction including various grades of Stainless Steel, Hastelloy, or Titanium 
  • Interior polish or electro-polish per application requirement 
  • Special packing materials of graphite, food grade PTFE or as needed by process
  • Interior coating for providing abrasion resistance or material release include hard chrome plating, nickel plating, tungsten carbide, Stellite, or Teflon
  • Transflow® fluidized rotors for cohesive powders
  • Lantern ring with purge connection in the packing gland
  • Rotor shaft mechanical seals
  • Self-adjusting packing follower
  • Shaft seal coatings
  • Inlet material deflector/baffle for granular products
  • Direct venting, with vent installed in the housing
