Control of centrifuge feed rate
Thread Content
Only one pneumatic butterfly valve is installed between the bottom of the sump and the feed inlet of the centrifuge, and it can only be in two states: open or closed. The valve at the bottom of the sump can be operated manually or pneumatically; in the pneumatic mode, it also has only two states: open or closed. Wouldn’t it be better to consider adding a ball valve after the pneumatic butterfly valve and before the feed inlet in order to control the amount of feed?
Replacing the bottom valve of the barrel with a ball valve will do
Reply to 2# li*nji: Pneumatic ball valve? Is a pneumatic ball valve also a two-position valve? Currently, a bottom valve that functions as a stop valve is being used
^_^Just use a ball valve with a cylinder that allows adjustable stroke! We usually get them from valve companies; just let them know when placing the order. There are many different types of pneumatic actuators available
Reply to 4# li*nji: Oh, we have two centrifuges here, so there shouldn’t be any issue with feeding materials at the same time. If materials were fed simultaneously, it would be difficult to control things
