Cullet Diverter Chute
HALDEN cullet diverter chute is designed for abrasive bulk material handling applications where interior wear protection and reliable directional flow control are critical. This pivoting chute diverter features chromium carbide wetted parts to protect the internal surfaces from extreme abrasion and wear.
The internal pivoting chute is positioned by a two-stage Vortex pneumatic cylinder controlled through solenoid valves and position indication switches. Controls are routed through a pre-wired terminal box, allowing the chute to be repositioned to different discharge ports according to process requirements.
- Chromium carbide wetted parts for strong internal wear protection
- Pivoting chute structure for discharge path selection
- Two-stage Vortex pneumatic cylinder actuation
- Solenoid valve control with position indication switches
- Pre-wired terminal box for control routing
- Suitable for abrasive cullet and bulk material handling systems
Wear-Protected Diverter for Abrasive Material Flow
The cullet diverter chute is built for environments where abrasive material flow causes rapid wear on conventional internal surfaces. By using chromium carbide wetted parts, the chute interior gains stronger protection against abrasion, helping improve equipment life and reduce maintenance frequency.
This makes it suitable for material handling systems where wear resistance and controlled discharge routing are both important.
Pivoting Internal Chute for Directional Discharge Control
The internal pivoting chute can be positioned to direct material toward different discharge ports. By energizing and de-energizing the solenoid valves, the chute can be moved into the selected discharge position according to the process requirement.
This provides a practical way to switch material flow paths inside the diverter assembly.
Key Features
Designed for abrasion resistance, flexible routing, and reliable pneumatic movement.
Chromium Carbide Wetted Parts
Chromium carbide wear surfaces protect the chute interior from extreme abrasion and wear during material flow.
Pivoting Chute Diverter Design
The internal chute pivots to direct material toward selected discharge ports inside the diverter housing.
Pneumatic Cylinder Positioning
The chute is positioned using a two-stage Vortex pneumatic cylinder for controlled internal movement.
Solenoid Valve Control
Solenoid valves are used to energize and de-energize the system for chute positioning control.
Position Indication Switches
Position indication switches provide confirmation of chute location during operation.
Pre-Wired Terminal Box
Controls are routed through a pre-wired terminal box to support easier electrical connection and system integration.
Actuation & Control
Pneumatic movement and electrical control support controlled routing to different discharge ports.
How the Chute Is Repositioned
By energizing and de-energizing the solenoid valves, the internal pivoting chute can be repositioned to any discharge port configured within the diverter system. This gives the operator or control system the ability to select material routing according to process demand.
Position Feedback and Wiring
Position indication switches are used to show chute location, while control wiring is routed through a pre-wired terminal box for a more organized and practical installation arrangement.
Advantages
Combines wear resistance with flow routing flexibility in abrasive material handling systems.
High Wear Resistance
Chromium carbide wetted parts provide better protection for the chute interior in severe abrasive service conditions.
Directional Flow Control
The pivoting internal chute allows the system to direct material to different discharge ports as needed.
No Need to Stop Material Flow for Position Availability
One stated advantage is that chute position can be changed without stopping material flow through the diverter, depending on system use and control requirement.
Important Operating Notes
Correct operation helps maintain sealing performance and prevents mechanical damage.
Not Designed for Shift-On-The-Fly Operation
The chromium carbide cullet diverter chute is not designed to be shifted while material is actively passing through the diverter. Fine material carried by the leading edge of the blade can build up on either side of the interior housing.
Once buildup occurs, the material seal is negated.
Risk of Trapped Larger Material
Larger material at the blade’s leading edge may become trapped between the blade edge and the interior housing. This can also negate the seal and may create breakage of the blade, blade shaft, or cause actuation problems.
Correct operating procedure is therefore important for long-term reliability.
Applications
Suitable for abrasive material diverter applications where routing flexibility and internal wear protection are needed.
Cullet Handling Systems
Used in cullet or abrasive particle flow systems where internal chute wear resistance is required.
Multi-Port Material Distribution
Suitable for process lines where material needs to be directed to different discharge ports.
Split Flow Process Conditions
In certain instances, the application may require flowing material to be directed to two destinations at once.
FAQ
Common questions about HALDEN cullet diverter chute.
1. What protects the interior of the diverter chute from abrasion?
Chromium carbide wetted parts are used to protect the interior from extreme abrasion and wear.
2. How is the internal chute positioned?
The internal pivoting chute is positioned by a two-stage Vortex pneumatic cylinder controlled by solenoid valves and position indication switches.
3. Can the chute be shifted while material is passing through it?
No. The chute is not designed to be shifted when material is passing through the diverter, because buildup and trapping can negate the seal and cause mechanical problems.
4. What can happen if larger material gets trapped at the blade leading edge?
It can negate the seal and may cause blade breakage, blade shaft damage, or actuation problems.
