DCL Slide Gate Valve for Dust Collection Systems
DCL Slide Gate Valve for Dust Collection Systems
slide gate valve are not only used for bulk solids handling processes shutting off or controlling flow for free flow powders, granulars like plastic pellets and agglomerates / large particles for aggregate, cement and coal . . . slide gate valves are also used for dust collection. One of the leaders in the dust collection and slide gate valve industry is DCL.

Slide gate valve are designed to shut off product flow from outlets of storage bins, silos, conveyors, and other discharge points handling dry bulk materials.

The valve frame is constructed from heavy duty 3/16 inch steel with a hardened Blanchard ground blade which rides on cam rollers or solid guides. Actuation of slide gate valve can be accomplished in many ways; pneumatically for fast action, hydraulically for power, electrically for precise positioning, and manually for maintenance and flow control. Blade seals are selected according to the material being handled and are available to suit any application. A molded urethane inlet liner provides an ideal blade seal when handling granular products. Additional frame seals are available and should be used when handling fine dusty material. Adjustable seals are also available to virtually eliminate the need for seal replacement. The seals are adjusted from the outside of the the valve frame, which makes it unique to the industry. All slide gate valve are equipped with a dust tight transition unless mounted directly above another valve. This transition is recommended when handling fine dusty material.

DCL offers a large selection of slide gate valve from 6 inches [152 mm] square up to 36 inches [914 mm] square. Slide gates are also available in sizes larger than 36 inches [914 mm], rectangular, and special configurations including dual opposing blade and dewatering designs on a custom build basis.
