Stainless Steel Rotary Airlock Valve

 An airlock rotary valve, also known simply as a rotary airlock or rotary valve, is a crucial component in various industrial processes, particularly for handling powders, granules, and other bulk materials. It plays a key role in controlling the flow of material while maintaining the integrity of the air pressure within the system. Here’s a detailed look at its function and features:

How It Works:

Design: The rotary valve typically consists of a cylindrical housing with a rotor inside that has multiple vanes or blades. The rotor is connected to a motor that rotates it within the housing.

Operation: As the rotor turns, material enters the inlet of the valve, is trapped between the vanes, and is then carried through the valve to the outlet. This rotation helps maintain a controlled and steady flow of material while minimizing air leakage.
