Gravity Flow Diverter
​
✔ Gravity flow diverters are used for automatically redirecting product streams between different processing units in the production process.

Construction and Key Components
​
✔ Valve Housing – Made of stainless steel, aluminum, or food-grade plastic, with an optional polished interior to minimize friction and prevent material buildup.
✔ Sealing and Guiding Elements:
Internal dual-plate damper with polyurethane sealing for airtight operation.
Rotary mechanisms for precise flow direction control.
✔ Actuation Mechanism:
Pneumatic actuator with a pneumatic cylinder controlled by a solenoid valve.
Lever system connected to the main spindle for smooth damper movement.
✔ Sealing Components:

Special rings and gaskets prevent air and product leakage.
✔ Position Sensors:
Track the current position of the damper and transmit data to the automation system.
The controller regulates valve operation and integrates it into the production process.
​
Operating Principle
​
✔ Receiving Signal – The control system sends a command to change the product flow direction.
✔ Actuator Activation – The pneumatic actuator moves the damper, opening or closing the required channel.
✔ Flow Redirection – The product is directed to the designated location according to production requirements.
✔ Process Monitoring – Sensors track execution accuracy, and the controller confirms the result.

Advantages
​
✅ Flexible Flow Control – Fast and precise redirection of product movement.
✅ Process Automation – Integration with the control system enhances production efficiency.
✅ Reliability and Durability – High-quality materials ensure long-term operation without loss of functionality.
✅ Hygienic Design – Airtight sealing and food-safe materials prevent product contamination.
