Tobacco

Tobacco materials are delicate and susceptible to contamination from air or moisture. A rotary airlock valve provides an airtight seal, safeguarding materials during transfer and preventing contamination. Whether handling raw tobacco leaves, finely cut tobacco, or processed materials, the right rotary valve ensures a safe, controlled transfer, maintaining the integrity and quality of your product.

Efficient pressure and flow management are crucial in the tobacco industry, where consistency is essential to maintaining production quality. Rotary airlock valves help regulate pressure differentials between various sections of your system, preventing leaks or pressure loss that could disrupt the process. This ensures a steady, regulated flow of materials, which is essential for maintaining consistent production conditions and minimizing material waste.

The tobacco industry involves exposure to various conditions that can challenge equipment, such as dust, moisture, and abrasive materials. Rotary airlock valves must withstand these conditions without compromising performance. The right valve offers durability, resistance to wear and tear, and minimal maintenance needs, helping to reduce downtime and extend the lifespan of your equipment.

The tobacco industry is subject to rigorous safety and environmental regulations. Rotary airlock valves help maintain system integrity, preventing the entry of air or contaminants that could compromise safety or release harmful substances. By selecting a rotary valve that meets industry standards for material handling, you ensure compliance and minimize operational risks.

Designed to withstand the harsh conditions of tobacco handling, these valves act as critical airlock transition points, preventing air loss and ensuring steady material flow under varying pressures. Built for high temperatures and pressure differentials, they offer reliable performance with minimal maintenance needs.

Meyer Industrial’s HDXP Heavy-Duty, NFPA design valves are custom-applied units tailored to your specific application. Our engineers evaluate the application and design based on material properties, temperature, pressure, and ambient conditions. These valves are available in cast iron, stainless steel, and cast steel to meet your NFPA requirements.

The Klean-In-Place II rotary airlock valve is designed for applications requiring frequent cleaning, sanitizing, or inspection of the bulk handling system. With its easy-to-operate maintenance features, it minimizes downtime, allowing technicians to service the component without disassembling it. This keeps your equipment running for as long as possible.

Meyer’s Double Flap Gates efficiently control material flow while preventing air leakage. The two pivoting gates, which open and close in sequence to isolate system pressures, maintain consistent flow even under challenging conditions.
