VideoMulti-Port Rotary Tube Selector Valves
Designed for diverting positive or negative pneumatic conveying lines and suitable for handing powders or granules.
Applications
Multi-Port Rotary Tube Selector Valve diverts pneumatically conveyed powders and granules from one line up to any of sixteen lines. Flow can also be converged from multiple lines into one line. Valve is often used to replace a series of two-way valves, thereby simplifying the system, and reducing maintenance.
Conveying line selection is fully automated and controlled from one location. Solid piping provides higher Temperature and pressure ratings and is less susceptible to wear than flexible-hose stations. Nu-Con's unique, time-tested inflatable seals are used on all ports to assure airtight conveying. Compact rotary configuration saves space and can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
