Vortex Fill Pass Diverters

Fill a selected hopper or pass material down the conveying line.

Vortex Fill Pass Diverter

Fill Pass Diverter for your process

The Vortex Fill Pass Diverter serves closed-loop pneumatic conveying systems feeding tanks or weigh hoppers. Its spread-stack arrangement separates the air and material paths to help reduce downstream carryover.

Tell us what you handle, where the component fits, and what needs to improve.

Also referred to as: Fill/pass valves; Weigh hopper diverters; Pneumatic hopper filling valves.

Features to consider

Choose fill or pass

Route solids into a hopper or onward through the line.

Manage carryover

A material deflector and spread stack guide the flow.

Coordinate batching

Air-cylinder actuation responds to control commands for hopper filling.

Review the exact duty, material, temperature, connections, and control requirements with RTS before ordering. Published ranges cover a product family and vary by configuration.

Product photos

What to send RTS

A material name, a process sketch, and a description of the current problem are a useful starting point. Include throughput, bulk density, temperature, and operating conditions when available.

  • Number of hoppers and fill sequence
  • Conveying rate, pressure, and carryover limits
  • Weighing controls and valve response requirements

For replacements, send the existing model or serial number, opening dimensions, bolt pattern, available space, and photos.

Plan your application review

Can this replace an existing component?

Send the existing dimensions, connections, actuator details, and operating duty. RTS can review the installation and identify what needs to match before a replacement is selected.

How should we specify seals and materials?

Include abrasion, corrosion, cleaning, temperature, and product-contact requirements. Let us know any required documentation or hazardous-area classification.

Can we include the component in a larger process?

Share the upstream and downstream equipment and the intended operating sequence. RTS can help review how the component fits your conveying, batching, or loading arrangement.
