Rotary Airlock Feeder – Heavy Duty Extra Tough (HDX)

If you are in an industry that requires high temperature and pressure, the HDX Heavy-Duty Extra-Tough Drop-Thru rotary airlock valves for dust collectors are designed to withstand high temperatures and pressure differentials up to 22 psi. This legendary high-pressure gate valve design sets the standard by which all others in the industry are measured. 

Why This Heavy-Duty Airlock Valve? 

HDX heavy-duty valves offer the heaviest gauge rotor vane stock of any competing product, extra-thick endplates, flanges, and housing walls, along with outboard mounted oversized bearings that are pre-lubricated and permanently sealed to ensure low maintenance and prolonged life compared to other heavy-duty gate valves.

  • Heaviest gauge rotor vane stock of any dust collector valves
  • Extra thick endplates, flanges, and housing walls
  • Outboard mounted oversized bearings, pre-lubricated and permanently sealed

To minimize costly maintenance and downtime, the Meyer PRO-TEC Seal is an enhanced Inflated Shaft Seal specifically designed for use in very abrasive, positive pressure pneumatic conveying applications.
