Horizon - Model BT Series -Rotary Airlock
FromHorizon Systems
The Rotary Airlock BT Series meters product out of a hopper while isolating the air pressure in the convey line from the hopper. A typical application for an airlock is to meter product into a convey line. It is utilized to improve material release from the rotor pockets or when there is limited height available. This high-performance rotary airlock/feeder offers the following features: high filling efficiency, sheared angle inlet and minimum air leakage. Shaft seals are suitable for products up to a temperature of 300 degrees with a maximum pressure differential of 29.4 PSIG (2 Bar).
