Matcon - Manual Cone Valve IBCs
Overcome the problems of mix segregation that are commonly associated with butterfly valve IBCs. Improve the containment of materials and prevent powder segregation with Manual Cone Valve IBCs. Designed for handling free-flowing powders used in the Food, Beverage, and Chemical sectors, the manually operated Cone Valve IBC offers superior performance as it provides a mass-flow discharge of free-flowing powders and prevents the segregation of powder mixes.
An effective butterfly valve alternative
The Matcon Manual Cone Valve IBC contains a manually operated cone valve in the outlet of the IBC. This offers superior discharge compared to butterfly valve IBCs.
The Manual Cone Valve unit comprises a valve body with a single-sided arm that supports a cone valve that is raised using a lever handle. This lever can be locked in the open or closed positions, or at any intermediate position via a locking handle, depending on the desired flow rate of powder discharge.
As the cone valve rises inside the IBC the annular gap created promotes mass-flow of the powders as they exit the IBC.
Key features:
- EUR-pallet compatible IBC
- Valve outlet ID 250mm
- Variable stroke position locking
- FDA approved seals
Powders are discharged under mass-flow which protects powder mixes and prevents particle rolling and ingredient segregation.
The Manual Cone Valve IBC offers complete discharge of free-flowing powders. An ideal choice for protecting product mixes such as sugar-based and 3-in-1 beverage mixes, salt-based food ingredients and washing powders.
The MCV IBC provides contained powder handling during transit between manufacturing processes.
Ideal when a simple, cost-effective solution with superior performance to butterfly or slide valve IBCs is required.
Designed for fast assembly and disassembly, the Manual Cone Valve is easy to clean.
