Rotary Valve HD

The Heavy-Duty (HD) AerolockTM is engineered for robust industrial applications and delivers high volumetric efficiency, operating reliably at pressure differentials of up to 1.0 bar(g) [15 psi(g)] and temperatures as high as 107.2°C [225°F]. When integrated into a conveying system, the maximum allowable pressure differential is limited to 0.8 bar(g) [12 psi(g)].

    The Heavy-Duty (HD) AerolockTM is engineered for robust industrial applications and delivers high volumetric efficiency, operating reliably at pressure differentials of up to 1.0 bar(g) [15 psi(g)] and temperatures as high as 107.2°C [225°F]. When integrated into a conveying system, the maximum allowable pressure differential is limited to 0.8 bar(g) [12 psi(g)].

    The HD features an eight-blade rotor that maintains a minimum two-blade labyrinth seal to minimize air leakage. The eight-blade rotor is available with either flat or relieved tips, offering several rotor options. Additionally, the HD employs a single radial ball bearing on the drive side and two tapered roller bearings on the thrust side.

    Tool Kits
    Required for the field installation of seals and bearings. The tool kit can
    Improve Aerolock performance by reducing premature wear.
    caused by improper seal and bearing installation.
    HD tool kit includes:

    • Seal driver tool for installing T3 seals, T3 inserts, and lip seals
    • Expansion tool to assist in the installation of the T3 inserts
    • bearing driver tool for installing drives and bearings
    • bearing driver tool for installing thrust-end bearings

    Accessories
    A complete line of accessories is available for the Aerolock rotary valves: variable frequency drive controller, disconnect panel, outlet adapters, shear protectors, maintenance slide gates, sight glasses, outlet guards, surge hoppers, floor support stands, flanged transitions, and custom transitions that ensure easy installation into an existing facility.
