A diverter valve is used in a conveying system to "divert" material being conveyed to two or more different destination locations. Because diverter valves are directly in the flow of bulk material on a pneumatic conveying system, operating conditions for the valve and actuator can be severe. Requirements vary from application to application, but in general diverter valves must be constructed from very durable materials and with few moving parts.
The Diverter is designed for use in gravity flow applications where material can be diverted from one source to either two or three destinations. The Diverter offers a removable access door for interior inspection, cleaning and maintenance.
