Rotary throttle valves are a excellent means to control material flow while air gravity conveying.  The rotary throttle valve uses a rotary parabolic blade that allows for a low profile design that delivers precise flow control.  A 4-20mA electric actuator is used to actuate the valve when real time infinite positioning is required.  If real time infinite positioning is not required DCL uses a pneumatic actuator with a 3 position positioning package.  The middle position can be manually adjusted according to the customer's requirements.  A large variety of materials can be handled with rotary throttle valves regardless of their abrasive nature or bulk density.  The criteria are particle size, moisture content, and temperature.  Material moisture content should be below 1% and temperature can not exceed 1200 degrees Fahrenheit [649° C].

DCL offers product compatibility tests in order to determine optimum conveying angles and aeration volumes.  A minimum product amount of 2 cubic feet [0.07 m³] is required to conduct a proper test.

DCL offers a large selection of rotary throttle valves from 6 inches [152 mm] wide up to 36 inches [914 mm] wide and conveying capacities up to 1000 cubic feet per minute [28.3 m³/min].  Rotary throttle valves are also available in a high top or low top design allowing for maximum flow rate or minimum head room depending on the application.

A choice of construction materials allow handling of all types of products; fine, granular, lumpy, abrasive, corrosive, and sanitary applications.  A choice of electrical options are also available allowing for installation in almost any environment; NEMA 4, NEMA 4X, NEMA 7, NEMA 9, 120V/220V control, 460V/415V power, etc.
