Multi-Choke Valve VPM

Advanced solutions rather than just equipment supply. Food-grade version in compliance with Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004 available.

Introduction

Multi-Choke Valve 1
Multi-Choke Valve 2
Multi-Choke Valve 3
The extensive use of WAM’s proprietary SINT engineering polymer, combined with an innovative geometric design, makes this Multi-Choke Valve a highly effective solution for controlling the flow of powders, flakes, or granular materials in both gravity and conveying applications. A food-grade version, compliant with Regulation (EC) No. 1935/2004, meets the stringent demands of high-end industrial sectors.

Technical Specs

Description

The VPM Multi-Choke Valve consists of a metal frame, three SINT engineering polymer-coated choke paddles, an integral SINT engineering polymer gasket, a splined actuator drive shaft and guarded power transmission on both frame sides.
Multi-Choke Valve

Function

VPM Multi-Choke Valves are designed to intercept the flow of dry powders or granular materials, whether gravity-fed or conveyed. They can be installed below the outlets of hoppers, bins, or FIBCs, as well as at the inlets and outlets of mechanical conveyors, and above the inlets or outlets of belt conveyors.
Thanks to their specially engineered geometry and a range of choke design options, VPM Multi-Choke Valves are suitable for use across virtually all industries, including food processing.
Their efficient performance, combined with the use of high-grade engineering materials, makes them a cost-effective solution wherever contamination or material pollution must be avoided during processing.
 

Features

  • PATENTED for technical design
  • Minimum overall height
  • Compatible with WAM and CEMA flanges
  • Safe sealing with no additional measures due to the all-round dustproof seal lips integrated into the polymer coating
  • Highly abrasion-resistant, wear compensating, replaceable gasket in SINT engineering polymer for standard or food-grade applications
  • Food-grade version compliant with Regulation (EC) 1935/2004
  • Interchangeable actuators: manual, pneumatic
  • Possibility of adjusting the choke opening angle to create a material feeding effect
  • Standard sizes: 300 ~ 400mm (12” ~ 16”)

Benefits

  • No contamination due to choke paddles and valve frame lined with SINT engineering polymer
  • Dust, pellet and granule-proof thanks to special component geometry
  • Highly abrasion-resistant due to replaceable SINT gasket
  • No downtime for gasket adjustment
  • Easy integration into the process thanks to light weight and eased handling
  • Quick fitting thanks to WAM and CEMA flange compatibility
  • High flexibility and time-saving maintenance due to interchangeable components
  • Optimum performance as a result of friction-free contact design (no waste of actuator torque to increase friction)
  • Safe operation thanks to total absence of pinch points and exposed moving parts
  • Optimised maintenance thanks to small number of components
  • Minimised residue and contamination thanks to low profile design

Options

  • Food-grade version compliant with Regulation (EC) 1935/2004
  • Interchangeable choke paddles and gasket
  • Food-grade gasket
