Working Principle

The valve uses compressed air to open and close the material passage instantly. When activated, the pneumatic cylinder moves the gate to allow or stop powder flow. The tight sealing structure ensures safe operation and prevents dust leakage in high-pressure conveying systems.

FAQs About Pneumatic Shut-Off Valve

Q1: What is a pneumatic shut-off valve used for?

A: A pneumatic shut-off valve is used to quickly start or stop bulk material flow in pneumatic conveying systems, silos, and discharge lines. It is widely applied in cement, fly ash, clinker, and powder handling operations where reliable on/off control is required.

Q2: What is the difference between a pneumatic shut-off valve and a flow control valve?

A: A pneumatic shut-off valve is designed for on/off isolation, while a flow control valve is used for modulating and regulating material flow rate. Shut-off valves focus on sealing performance and fast response rather than precision dosing.

Q3: Can pneumatic shut-off valves handle abrasive materials?

A: Yes. Pneumatic shut-off valves can be equipped with wear-resistant liners and reinforced sealing structures, making them suitable for abrasive materials such as cement, fly ash, limestone powder, and clinker.

Q4: Are pneumatic shut-off valves suitable for continuous operation?

A: Yes. When properly selected and maintained, pneumatic shut-off valves support continuous or intermittent operation in industrial bulk material handling systems with stable sealing performance.
