Application:
The Vortex diverter replaced a flapper diverter that no longer sealed material to the off leg and leaked material to atmosphere through numerous holes that had been worn through the diverter’s body.
This Vortex Aggregate Diverter features a bucket style blade constructed of abrasion resistant steel (400 BHN). The blade is modified to contain a honeycomb “rock box” that initially traps the material handled. Subsequent material conveyed through the diverter impacts on the trapped material rather than wearing out the blade.
Additionally, the inlet contains a dead pocket “rock box” that addresses abrasive material entering the diverter at a slight angle.
