THE BUHLER USF-36/38 ROTARY VALVE IS AN INDUSTRIAL COMPONENT ENGINEERED FOR THE CONTROLLED DISCHARGE AND PRECISE FEEDING OF BULK MATERIALS. ITS CONSTRUCTION FEATURES A ROBUST HOUSING, AVAILABLE IN MATERIALS SUCH AS CAST IRON (EN-GJL-250) OR STAINLESS STEEL (1.4301/AISI 304 OR 1.4401/AISI 316L). THE INTERNAL ROTOR IS TYPICALLY FABRICATED FROM STEEL (S235JR) OR STAINLESS STEEL, COMMONLY INCORPORATING 8 OR 10 FIXED CHAMBERS DESIGNED FOR EFFICIENT MATERIAL HANDLING. SHAFT SEALING MECHANISMS ARE IMPLEMENTED TO MITIGATE MATERIAL LEAKAGE AND AIR LOSS, OFTEN INCLUDING OPTIONS LIKE GLAND PACKING, PTFE LIP SEALS, OR PURGE AIR SEALS. THE VALVE IS TYPICALLY POWERED BY A GEAR MOTOR, WHICH CAN BE DIRECTLY COUPLED OR CONNECTED VIA A CHAIN DRIVE, ENABLING REGULATED ROTOR ROTATION. THIS MODEL IS DESIGNED TO OPERATE UNDER PRESSURE DIFFERENTIALS, COMMONLY UP TO 1 BAR (100 KPA), AND IS GENERALLY RATED FOR AN OPERATING TEMPERATURE RANGE OF -10°C TO +80°C.
