Overview

The double flap valve is a heavy-duty airlock discharge system designed for continuous, dust-free handling of fine powders and bulk materials such as cement, fly ash, lime powder, alumina, feldspar, and chemical powders.
Its dual-chamber structure ensures airtight sealing, prevents dust leakage, and eliminates material backflow while maintaining stable feeding performance.

This valve is widely used in:
✅ Cement plants
✅ Pneumatic conveying systems
✅ Dust collection systems
✅ Silo unloading systems
✅ Chemical and mineral processing industries

Working Principle

✅ Material enters the upper chamber
✅ Upper flap closes → lower flap opens
✅ Material discharges while maintaining air pressure balance
✅ Dual flaps work alternately to ensure continuous, dust-free feeding
✅ Prevents air escape, dust leakage, and material backflow
This principle enables the double flap valve to operate as an airlock valve, allowing material passage while maintaining system pressure integrity.
