Swing Gate Key Specifications

Actuation

Gravity-assisted with pneumatic cylinder for automated diversion; hydraulic for heavy-duty applications; manual pin-latch for emergency and maintenance isolation.

Sealing Type

Heavy-duty compression seal for coarse ore and pellets; enhanced perimeter sealing for fine materials to contain dust in enclosed chute diversion systems.

Seating Configuration

Hard seated with impact-resistant metal contact surfaces for dense iron ore and DRI materials; replaceable impact liners on swing plate material contact face.

Port Shape

Square and rectangular ports matching chute cross-sections; custom swing plate profiles for integration with Y-junction and multi-way diverter assemblies.

Body Material

Mild steel frame with Hardox 450 swing plate and impact liners; manganese steel overlay option for extreme abrasion in iron ore handling applications.

Size Range

Available from 200 mm to 1500 mm for ore chute diversion, coke handling, DRI flow control, and material routing in steel and sponge iron plants.

Industrial Applications

Iron Ore Chute Diverter
Installed at chute junctions to divert iron ore flow between alternate stockpiles, screening stations, or parallel processing lines in the raw material yard.
DRI Cooler Discharge Diversion
Mounted at DRI cooler discharge to route cooled DRI to either briquetting plant or direct EAF feed bins based on production scheduling requirements.
Emergency Chute Isolation
Positioned in material transfer chutes as emergency shutoff gates to stop material flow during conveyor belt slip, equipment failure, or safety lockout procedures.
