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.)
