DCS Rotary Airlock Feeder

The Dust Collector Series (DCS) rotary airlock feeder is suited for general use under dust collectors, cyclones, and hoppers. With standard features normally considered heavy-duty, these feeders boast eight-blade rotors, precision machining, and rugged cast iron housing for efficient operation. In a case where pressure differential exists, such as when feeding pneumatic conveying lines, the heavy-duty series rotary airlock feeder is best suited for feeding the material accordingly. These particular airlocks maintain the highest level of performance for an extended period of time. The Quick-Take-Apart Series (QTA) rotary airlock feeder is made for applications where frequent removal of the valve internals is required. This valve permits tool-less removal of the rotor and end plate as one piece, eliminating the time-consuming step of “gapping” the rotor during re-assembly. When encountering alumina, coke, fly ash, glass frit, and other highly abrasive products, the ceramic series rotary airlock feeder sustains its durability and achieves at least 3-5 times longer life compared to chrome and Ni-hard valves. A high-performance, thick wear layer of alumina ceramic coating maintains the valve’s precision tolerances longer.
