Vortex has supplied two rectangular Titan Slide Gate Valves, separated by an intermediate feed hopper. The valves will operate in tandem to facilitate semi-continuous feeding of solid waste pet material via a feed hopper into a feed trough.

The valves are designed to handle feedstock up to 50mm to a design temperature of 205° C and are ATEX rated.
The heavy-duty valve frame construction is based on formed carbon steel channel with a beveled, 304 stainless steel blade and liner. Material contact is 304 stainless steel and polymer.

Access in the valve frame allows for removal and replacement of bonnet seals while the gate remains in service.

The gate is actuated by an epoxy-coated, double acting air cylinder equipped with a magnetic ring which activates a magnetic position indicating switch.
