Swing Gate Key Specifications

Actuation

Gravity-assisted with pneumatic cylinder for automated diversion control; manual pin-latch for maintenance isolation; counterweight-balanced for consistent swing action.

Sealing Type

Compression perimeter seal at plate-to-frame interface; upgraded seals for coal dust containment at diverter stations to prevent combustible dust accumulation.

Seating Configuration

Hard seated metal-to-metal for hot bottom ash service; rubber cushion seat for coal handling to reduce impact noise and improve sealing at chute diverters.

Port Shape

Square and rectangular ports matched to chute cross-sections; custom swing plate profiles for integration with existing power plant chute geometries.

Body Material

Mild steel frame with wear-resistant swing plate; Hardox overlay on material impact zones for coal handling; stainless steel for wet ash applications.

Size Range

Available from 200 mm to 1500 mm for coal chute diversion, ash hopper isolation, and material flow control in power plant handling systems.

Industrial Applications

Coal Chute Two-Way Diverter
Installed at coal chute Y-junctions to divert coal flow between alternate bunkers or conveyors, with pneumatic actuation for DCS-controlled automated switching.
Ash Chute Emergency Shutoff
Mounted in bottom ash chutes as emergency isolation devices to stop ash flow during submerged chain conveyor maintenance or abnormal operating conditions.
Reject Material Diverter
Positioned at magnetic separator and screening station discharge points to divert tramp metal and oversized reject material away from the primary coal stream.
