ESFV Rotary Star Feed Ceramic Valve
Design and performance
Fully Ceramic-Lined: All internal surfaces in contact with the material are lined with alumina ceramic, providing wear and corrosion resistance while preventing metal contamination. Critical components include the rotor and valve body lining.
Clean and Non-Polluting: Suitable for applications requiring contamination-free handling of powders or fine particles.
Precise Adjustment & Backflow Prevention: Rotor design ensures smooth and controlled feeding, preventing backflow.
Versatile Feeding Solution: suited to use as a metered feeding device in air-flow mills, mechanical crushers, ball mills, vibration mills, stirred mills, and other powder-handling equipment. Can also function as a discharge device at the outlet.
