International Baghouse Supply runs a complete line of rotary airlocks suitable for air lock applications ranging from gravity discharge of filters, rotary valves, cyclone dust collectors, and rotary airlock storage devices to precision feeders for dilute phase and continuous dense phase pneumatic conveyor systems. To contact an experienced representative of International Baghouse Supply, call 800-686-3089.

IBS rotary airlock feeders have wide application in industry wherever dry free-flowing powders, granules, crystals, or pellets are used. Our customers are often processing: cement, sugar, minerals, grains, plastics, dust, fly ash, flour, gypsum, lime, coffee, cereals, pharmaceuticals, etc...

It is important to us that we offer you the most effective solution for your specific rotary airlock valve needs. In order to do so, we will need the following information from you when you call 1-800-686-3089 to make an order:

• What size valve are you looking for? (4x4, 6x6, 8x8, etc... Custom Sizing Available)
• Is the valve round or square?
• Function of the valve-- is it airlock only, feeder only, or airlock-feeder? (Airlock only minimizes system air loss while allowing the transfer of material between vessels with differing pressure; Feeder only regulates the continuous flow of material between vessels sharing the same pressure; Airlock-Feeder minimizes system air loss while regulating the flow of material between vessels with differing pressure)
• What is feeding the valve? (hopper, cyclone, shredder, silo, filter receiver, dryer, baghouse, screw, mixer, other)
• What is the valve discharging into? (hopper, belt, tank, screw, chute, vac line, airslide, mixer, pressure line, other)
• Specific pressure measurement above and below the airlock (positive, negative, atmospheric)
• Temperature above and below the airlock
• Is the valve choke fed?
• Diameter of the conveying line
• Humidity above and below the airlock valve (high, average, low)
• Bulk density of the material that the valve will be feeding
• Particle type/shape (pellet, granular, powder, flake, chip, curl, lump, fibrous)
• Maximum particle size
• Flow Rate
• Abrasive vs. corrosive
