Guillotine Gate Key Specifications

Actuation

Hydraulic cylinder for large coal yard and bunker gates; pneumatic for mid-range ash handling applications; motorized for automated DCS-controlled operation.

Sealing Type

Standard sealing for lump coal; low-leakage side and bottom seals for crushed coal and ash applications requiring dust containment at transfer points.

Seating Configuration

Hard seated metal-to-metal for all power plant applications; renewable seat inserts for field replacement to maintain shutoff performance over extended service periods.

Port Shape

Rectangular ports for coal chute and bunker openings; square ports for ash hopper connections; custom geometries for retrofit installations in existing power plants.

Body Material

Heavy-gauge mild steel frame with Hardox 450 blade for coal handling; stainless steel blade option for corrosive wet ash and FGD system applications.

Size Range

Available from 300 mm to 2000 mm for coal bunker isolation, stockpile reclaim hopper discharge, and large-section ash handling duct shutoff in power plants.

Industrial Applications

Coal Yard Reclaim Hopper
Installed at coal stockpile reclaim hoppers below stacker-reclaimer systems to control coal feed rate onto belt conveyors for boiler house transport.
Boiler Bunker Feed Chute
