| Case Study: Vortex® Wye Line Diverter™ Handling Polypropylene And PET | In May, 1998, the company installed two Vortex® 5” Wye Line Diverters™. The Vortex® diverters allow product to be blended more accurately and more frequently. By Vortex Valves | 01/08/2010 | 80.6 KB |
| Case Study: Vortex® 2-Way Wye Line Diverter Handling Polymer Pellets | This US based division of an international company manufactures an extremely abrasive polymer pellet. Plant management learned, from a sister UK facility, that component parts used to transfer product must be able to withstand the product’s abrasiveness. By Vortex Valves | 01/08/2010 | 96.7 KB |
| Case Study: Vortex Wye Line Diverter Handling Polyethylene Pellets For Chemical Company | The sliding blade design of the Vortex® Diverter allows shifting on the fly, keeping the product line running. The design of the tunnel diverter requires stopping material, shutting down the blower, shifting the diverter, starting up the blower, and re-introducing material.

| Case Study: Vortex® Seal Tite™ Gravity Diverter | A Vortex® 2-way Seal Tite™ Gravity Diverter, model Z08-2SS-SL-45-MG-HT4-CIP-RTP-X, was engineered and manufactured to meet many application criteria. Food grade viton rubber vane seals and Florisant 207 shaft seals were used to accommodate the 450? - 500?F temperatures present. By Vortex Valves | 01/07/2010 | 195.3 KB |
| Case Study: Salina Vortex | L-R Systems needed a problem solver for a cusomer’s rail unloading system. The customer is involved with plastic extrusion and injection molding. Their rail unload system (from one car to any of four different silos) was a nightmare. Employees wrestled heavy switching hoses as hook-ups had to be made individually to each silo. Errors were made in transferring material to the wrong silo. Safety issues, especially during winter months, were continually a concern. By Vortex Valves | 12/23/2009 | 276.6 KB |
| Datasheet: Vortex® Dual Cylinder Roller Gate™ | Dual cylinder design reduces overall length by one third. With the Vortex Dual Cylinder Roller Gate valve, there is no metal on metal contact between the blade and the valve body. | 12/23/2009 | 111.3 KB |

| Datasheet: Vortex® Roller Gate™ | With the Vortex Roller Gate valve, there is no metal on metal contact between the blade and the valve body. This feature eliminates the associated gate seizing and binding seen with other slide gate valves. | 12/22/2009 | 83.9 KB |
| Datasheet: Vortex® Gravity Vee Diverter™ | The Vortex Gravity “Vee” Diverter valve provides a dust-tight material seal in gravity or low pressure applications. Internal ledges have been eliminated to minimize potential material cross contamination. The Gravity “Vee” Diverter valve can be equipped with gate positioning controls for metering material flow in either direction. | 12/22/2009 | 88.5 KB |
| Datasheet: Vortex® Keeper™ Maintenance Gate | The Vortex “Keeper” Maintenance Gate valve provides a positive material and air seal to atmosphere when installed in a closed system. This makes it an excellent choice for handling products such as fine powders in dilute phase (up to 15 psig) pneumatic conveying systems. | 12/22/2009 | 89.1 KB |
| Datasheet: Vortex® HDP® Slide Gate | The Vortex HDP slide gate contains a patent pending, self-adjusting blade and clevis. This feature allows the blade to slide horizontally, then rise vertically into the closed / sealed position. Seal contact and associated seal wear is greatly minimized. Wedging and packing of material into a valve seat is eliminated. | 12/22/2009 | 92.0 KB |
| Datasheet: Vortex® Quantum™ 2-Way Wye Line Diverter™ | The Vortex 2-way Wye Line Diverter offers positive sealing in both vacuum and pressure conveying systems. The scissor material shearing action allows the valve to be reliably diverted on a stream of material when required. The Wye Line is bi-directional and may be used as a diverter or a converger. | 12/22/2009 | 109.3 KB |
| Datasheet: Vortex® Quantum™ Series Orifice Gate™ | The Vortex Quantum Series Orifice Gate valve offers significant advantages over traditional knife gates and butterfly valves. Other gate valves, knife gates, slide gates, and butterfly valves rely on soft rubber seals that erode away or tear when handling dry bulk material. | 12/22/2009 | 101.4 KB |
| Case Study: Vee-Type Diverters Eliminate The Spills At Missouri Mill | Prior to his assignment in Carthage, Speer had worked at the former Western Star (now ADM Milling) flour mill in Salina, KS. While there, Speer became familiar with a product manufactured by a local company, Salina Vortex Corp. – the company’s “GRAVITY VEE” diverter. By Vortex Valves | 12/22/2009 | 36.3 KB |
