Diverter Valve for Powder, Granule & Bulk Material Flow Control
(Katup Diverter untuk Pengalihan Aliran Bubuk, Granula & Material Curah)
Reliable bulk material diverter for smooth, dust-free switching of bulk material between conveying lines
Overview
Diverter valve is a critical component used to control and redirect the flow of powder, granules, pellets, and bulk materials between different conveying lines, silos, or storage systems.
LVRUI material flow diverter is specifically designed for powder conveying systems, bulk material handling lines, and silo discharge applications, ensuring smooth material switching with minimal leakage and no blockage. With robust construction and precise flow control, our diverter valves help improve system efficiency, reduce downtime, and maintain a clean working environment.
These industrial diverter valves are widely used in cement plants, fly ash handling systems, pneumatic conveying pipelines, grain terminals, chemical processing, fertilizer production, and mining operations. Depending on the conveying method and material characteristics, the industrial diverter can be configured as pneumatic, electric, or gravity-operated.

Features
✅ Dust-tight and air-tight sealing to prevent powder leakage
✅ Wear-resistant flow channels for abrasive bulk materials
✅ Smooth and accurate material flow direction switching
✅ Available as two-way, three-way, or multi-way diverter valve
✅ Compatible with pneumatic conveying, gravity flow, and mechanical conveying systems
✅ Manual, electric, or pneumatic actuation options
✅ Suitable for cement, fly ash, lime powder, mineral powder, grain, and plastic pellets
✅ Heavy-duty carbon steel, stainless steel, or high-temperature alloy construction
Working Principle
✅ Material enters through the inlet port
✅ The internal blade or flap rotates to redirect flow
✅ Material is routed to Outlet A or Outlet B (or additional outlets for multi-way type)
✅ Sealed structure prevents dust escape and backflow
✅ Stable operation ensures consistent material feeding in conveying pipelines
Material enters the material flow diverter through the inlet port and is guided by an internal flap, blade, or rotor mechanism. By rotating or shifting the internal component, the diverter valve redirects material flow to one or more outlet ports.
The sealed structure ensures dust-free operation and prevents backflow, making the diverter valve ideal for continuous conveying systems. Stable switching guarantees consistent material feeding, even in high-capacity or high-temperature conveying pipelines.

Diverter Valves FAQs
Q1: What is a material flow diverter used for?
A: A diverter unit is used to change the direction of powder or bulk material flow between different conveying lines, silos, or processing equipment in industrial systems.
Q2: What materials can a powder flow diverter handle?
A: Diverter valves are suitable for cement, fly ash, lime powder, mineral powder, grain, pellets, and other bulk materials, including abrasive or high-temperature materials with proper lining.
Q3: What is the difference between a two-way and three-way diverter valve?
A: A two-way diverter valve switches material flow between two outlets, while a three-way powder flow diverter allows material to be directed to multiple discharge points.
Q4: Is customization available for diverter valves?
A: Yes. material flow diverter can be customized based on material type, conveying method, temperature, outlet number, and actuator type.
