Diverter Valves

Manual or Automatic Diverter Valves

Diverter valves are primarily used by customers wanting to… well… divert material or air between two different locations. The valves are available in manual or automatic. US Duct's automatic diverter valves are pneumatically operated and electrically controlled. The pneumatic cylinder requires 90 psi to operate but uses very little volume. Duel solenoids activate the cylinder. The solenoids are activated by virtually any electrical signal—12/24 V, AC/DC, or 110/220 line voltage. These solenoids operate off of milliamps and therefore require only minimal wiring. The valve is powered in both directions to deflect the air through the primary or secondary exit.

The diversion of material or airflow could be accomplished using a branch and a series of gates or auto gates, the diverter valve is of a much heavier construction — 3/16" steel body — and able to sustain multiple and rapid transitions with heavy material that can cause problems with gates. When you order a Diverter Valve for your dust collection or other ducting systems from US Duct, you are assured of getting a heavy-duty valve with a tight sealing door that is built to last for years. An inspection door allows you to clean out the valve (helpful for applications involving colored plastics) or to replace the rubber seal on the door.
