Aerodyne announced the Rhino H Rotary Valve, used for metering dry granular materials in manufacturing processes. The new rotary airlock valve provides a smooth, predictable flow of material without the problems that plague other valves not designed for abrasive materials or not able to be customized.
Intended for highly abrasive materials, the Rhino H Rotary Valve is highly rugged and dependable, minimizing the need for maintenance and replacement. Rotor vanes have hardened tips, and tight tolerances between shroud and rotor vanes minimize material entry that can cause wear. Moreover, an optional abrasion-resistant coating is available.
