Vortex gates and valves are engineered to improve flow control, reduce leakage, and ensure consistent, reliable operation in bulk material handling systems.
Improve Flow | Reduce Leakage | Increase Reliability
Divert abrasive material with service access built in.
Vortex Pivoting Chute Diverters route heavy-duty or abrasive dry solids to two or three destinations in gravity-fed systems. Replaceable wear components and access panels support service.
Tell us what you handle, where the component fits, and what needs to improve.
Also referred to as: Pivot chute valves; Abrasive material diverters; Heavy-duty chute diverters.
Abrasion-resistant chute and liner options suit demanding materials.
A removable panel allows inspection and internal maintenance.
The pivoting chute guides material toward the selected outlet; flow-splitting duties can be reviewed.
Review the exact duty, material, temperature, connections, and control requirements with RTS before ordering. Published ranges cover a product family and vary by configuration.
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.
For replacements, send the existing model or serial number, opening dimensions, bolt pattern, available space, and photos.
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.
Include abrasion, corrosion, cleaning, temperature, and product-contact requirements. Let us know any required documentation or hazardous-area classification.
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.
