Three way diverter [Three way flap valve]

Material flow diverter is used for selecting one out of two outlet ports. The flow through these valves is essentially a gravity flow and the position of the diverter flap decides which of the two outlet ports will be active.

MITECK SYSTEMS manufactures & supplies these fabricated valves as per customers’ requirements.

Diverter valves are designed to direct product flow outlets of storage bins, silo conveyors, gravity flow chutes and other discharge points handling powders, granules, grains and other bulk solids. These valves are available in deflector or diverter types, with three-positional control on diverter if required to split the flow.

The splitting of flow can be achieved by positioning the diverter flap in an intermediate position. However, middle position will not necessarily mean equal splitting of flow as the location of valve and material flow characteristic can influence the flow splitting ratio.

MITECK SYSTEMS also manufactures “Three way diverter valve”, which is a variation on Diverter gate valves having three possible outlets instead of two.

APPLICATIONS

As the name suggests, Diverter Gate Valves are used to determine the outflow of bulk, free flowing material from a vessel bin. The vessel could be hoppers, silos, bag filter, bins etc. and the feeder can be any type of bulk material conveyor.

  • They are used in various industries such as cement, chemicals, mining, mineral process, textile, paper, food grains, etc

Common industry uses for Material flow diverter :

Conveying & metering Cement industry
Mining Grain & hops handling/storage
Wood Products Waste & sawdust
Paper Pulp & chip handling
Steel industry Gypsum conveying for wallboard
Lead Products Recycled lead
Food Handling Various food-grade applications
Salt Mines Mixing, conveying, blending
Steel Mills Dust collection & storage
Sewage Plants Sludge conveying & storage
Chemical Plants Prevents contamination
Feed & Grain Various applications
Rendering Extensive use, washes down
Glass Plants
