PowderFlow Butterfly Valve

Description

Young Industries offers the PowderFlow Butterfly Valve specifically designed for use in dry powder handling applications. The Patented valve utilizes a disc lined with TransFlow® fluidization media. The TransFlow® disc fluidizes and conditions even the most cohesive powders. 

Specifications

The PowderFlow Butterfly valve is designed to enhance powder flow not to obstruct it. The disc of the valve is lined on both sides with TransFlow® fluidization media. The TransFlow® disc fluidizes and conditions the powder so that it will flow through the valve easily. The most effective area to begin fluidizing and condition powders for repeatable flow from hoppers is the lowest point of the hopper. The lowest point on any hopper is the valve attached to its discharge connection. With the PowderFlow Butterfly Valve the fluidization and conditioning process starts in the valve itself. This is the lowest point and best location to start the fluidization and conditioning of the powder m the process vessel above.

SilentFlow® Bin Dischargers can be furnished as part of the bin or silo and can be supplied for new or existing storage vessels. Cone angles of 60°, 45°, 30°, as well as special designs, can be supplied to match your requirements.
