Cellular lock SCO-160 BN (ATEX)

A cell sluice (colloquial: cell) is also called a cellular, rotary, rotary or sector valve or dispenser. With cell sluices, it is possible to operate cyclones on the vacuum side, as well as work in systems with filter stations.

The device is suitable for bulk raw materials such as sawdust, chips, dust, pellets, plastic pellets, regranulate, recyclate, paper and leather offcuts and others.

Cellular sluices are also used for material dosing (versions with reinforced rotor and higher power drive for full feed operation are available).

All sluices manufactured by MOVIMET AIR have a double peripheral shaft seal (which increases bearing life compared to competitive units).

The sluice is equipped with a rotor rotation sensor, which should be connected to the electrical system in such a way as to disconnect the power supply to the device and trigger a fault indication when an unintentional rotor stop is detected.

The device is made in accordance with the ATEX directive (2014/34/EU) for operation in conditions where there is a potentially explosive zone inside the device (zone 21 or 22), and there is no explosion hazard outside the device.

It is possible to manufacture special variants, such as:

• of other materials,
• of other dimensions,
• with different motor power,
• with a different rotational speed,
• with additional equipment (for example, a speed sensor).
