Newly designed rotary valves for pneumatic conveying of granular products feature expanded tips at the ends of rotor blades to reduce air leakage. The valves have an increased number of blades, as well as redesigned air vents to help minimize leakage and optimize venting. The new rotary valves are available for medium (22 psi) to high (50 psi) pressure applications, and for conveying capacities of between 4,500 lb/h and 220,000 lb/h. — Pelletron Corp., Lancaster, Pa.
