GENERAL INFORMATION

The Airex Industries line of rotary airlocks are design to control the flow of discharge material from a dust collector or other type of process by maintaining an air seal. A motor driven paddle wheel rotates material from the top of the housing to the bottom.



ADVANTAGES / FEATURES
  • Controlled and automated discharge of the dust collector
  • Maintains the dust collector’s air seal


THEORY OF OPERATION

HOW ROTARY AIRLOCKS WORK
  • The discharge falls from the hopper into the rotary airlock.
  • Paddle wheels with rubber extensions to keep the system hermetically sealed collect the discharge.
  • A motor drive rotates the paddle wheels at a specified speed and eventually the particles are evacuated from the bottom of the system without breaking the air seal.


(Insert illustrations explaining the inner workings of a rotary airlock or video of the lock in use/action.)
