Trickle Valves
The open-construction Platypus and the closed-construction
Armadillo are 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. It requires
no controls, lubrication or power supply and easily handles abrasive materials. The
valve can be used in higher temperature applications as well. The Vacu-Valve® trickle
valve is available at a fraction of the cost of the rotary airlock valves it
replaces. Available in 8" flange size only.
- Inexpensive
- No power source needed
- Carbon or stainless steel

Aerodyne StopTight® Slide Gate Valves are reliable, dust-tight
components for controlling flow in a bulk material handling system. The
unique slide gate drive action eliminates the need for racks, pinions, cams,
or other internal mechanisms that tend to interfere with valve operation. A
leaf spring assisted slide plate seals against the inlet collar to provide
an air tight seal when closed.

The GatorGate Double-Dump valve feeds and moves chunky or fibrous material that would jam
ordinary rotary valves and is durable enough to move abrasive material. The
GatorGate valve uses tandem gates to maintain proper pressure above and below
the valve and has a reinforced closure mechanism to prevent air seepage. This double flap,
material handling valve can be configured to operate using air or electricity and requires
little maintenance.
- Heavy duty carbon steel fabrication
- Heavy duty gear reducer and cam mechanism
- Explosion proof motors available
- Pneumatic air cylinder or diaphragm actuator models available
