QuestionnaireEasy Slide Rotor Support (USDA)
In hygienic and sanitary systems it is frequently necessary to de-mount rotary valve rotors for cleaning - this optional accessory assists the operator by safely supporting and precisely aligning the rotor components.
Application
Easy-Slide Rotor Support is an optional accessory for all sizes of Nu-Con demountable convey and drop-through rotary valves. It safely supports the rotor and non-drive endplate when they are removed from the valve bore, and keeps them precisely aligned for reassembly.
Rotor and endplate are mounted to a hinged, slide-rod carriage assembly supported by precision linear bearings. Endplate only, or complete rotor and endplate assembly can be removed in one operation, without tools, and turned to one side for full access to all product-contact surfaces.
Design speeds and simplifies inspection, cleaning and maintenance. It's ideal for applications where the valve requires frequent disassembly or is not easily accessible.
- Reduces risk of damage to precision-machined rotor and body bore for optimum valve performance.
- Eliminates need to "man-handle" heavy components. Reduces risk of operator injury.
- Assures precise rotor alignment in body bore for reassembly.
- Can be retrofitted to standard Nu-Con Demountable Rotary Valves.
- Heavy-duty construction features hard-chrome slide rods and precision linear bearings to maintain critical tolerances.
- Maintenance-free design with permanently lubricated sealed bearings and wear-resistant components.
- Available in left or right-hand configurations and a variety of materials and surface finishes to match rotary valve specifications.
- ATEX rated valves are available for use in hazardous zones.
