Aerodyne - Trickle Valves
From Featured Valves
The open-construction Platypus and the closed-construction Armadillotrickle valvesare the most economical ways to manage dust discharged from bag filters or cyclones under negative pressure. The fitted duckbill sleeve adjusts to the desired vacuum, and material is continuously discharged. Itrequires no controls, lubrication or power supply, and easily handles abrasive materials. Thistrickle valvecan be used in higher temperature applications as well. The Vacu-Valve® dust discharge trickle valve is available at a fraction of the cost of the rotary airlock valves it replaces.

Products Details
The Vacu-Valve operates based on the equilibrium between the vacuum in the system above it, the particulate size, shape, mass and physical characteristics. The sleeve forms an airlock when exposed to negative pressure above it. The vacuum must be less than -16' W.C. to pass solids. Solids will build up in the Vacu-Valve as the vacuum and sleeve friction resist, letting the particulate out. The force of gravity and weight of built-up particulate force the particles down through the sleeve until they fall out of the bottom. Fine particles with a spherical shape (ex. sand) work best. Flow rates vary based on the particulate characteristics and operating conditions. Contact an Aerodyne representative to see if this valve will work for your application.Available in 8' and 10' flange size.
