Rotary valves for enclosures stable operation and controlled product flow
Control product flow, maintain pressure zones and achieve more stable and efficient conveying of powder and granules. We help choose and integrate the correct rotary valve. to your process.
Unstable maintenance of pressure differences between processes and flows
ensure stable and controlled transport of powder and granules
It is typically used between two process steps, where materials need to be conveyed without affecting pressure or flow.
It is a central component in many pneumatic conveyor systems. A rotary valve is particularly relevant in plants where stable operation and precise dosing are crucial for production.
Typical applications in process plants
What are rotary valves used for:
Rotary valves are used in process plants where it is crucial to control material flow and ensure stable operation.
Stable dosing of powder and granules
Ensures uniform supply to e.g. mixers, fillers or silos
Maintaining pressure zones
Separates process steps without affecting pressure.
Continuous handling in plants
Ensures smooth flow in pneumatic vacuum and pressure systems
Safety in ATEX environments
Contributes to protection against explosion and flame propagation

Rotary valves for hygienic and demanding productions
I food, pharma In chemical production, high demands are placed on cleaning, inspection, and documentation. Here it is crucial that cell locks are designed for easy access, effective cleaning, and minimal risk of contamination.
No access to rotor and internal surfaces
Make cleaning and inspection faster and more efficient.
Designed for frequent cleaning
Supports operation in environments with high hygiene requirements.
Possibility of CIP (Cleaning in Place)
Reduces downtime and ensures consistent cleaning.
Operational reliability in demanding productions
Stable performance, even with frequent stop/start and cleaning
We help you choose the right solution based on your hygiene, operational, and production requirements.
Examples of rotary valves and solutions
We are working with different types of cell licences depending on the requirements for capacity, hygiene, and integration into
your system. Here are some typical solutions:
Hygienic Rotary valves for food and pharma
Designed for productions with high demands for cleaning, inspection, and documentation. Easy access to the rotor and internal surfaces makes cleaning faster and reduces the risk of contamination.
We work, among other things, with hygienic cell locks from Coperion, developed for food, pharmaceutical, and chemical productions.
Rotary valves with full access
Makes it possible to pull out the rotor and gain direct access to all internal surfaces. Ideal for productions with frequent cleaning, product changeovers or rapid inspection requirements.
FX solutions with full access, where the rotor can be removed for easy cleaning and inspection.
Standard Rotary valves for industrial operation
Robust and reliable solution for handling powder and granules in industrial processes. Suitable for applications where the focus is on stable operation, high capacity, and minimal maintenance.
Integrated solution with vacuum conveying
Rotary valves can be integrated with vacuum conveyors and form part of complete pneumatic conveying systems. This provides a more stable flow, higher capacity, and the possibility of continuous conveying between process stages.
Often combined with PIAB vacuum conveyors in complete solutions.

Rotary valves as part of a complete conveying system
Rotary valves only really provide value when they are part of a complete solution.
By combining airlocks with vacuum transport, you can, for example, move from batch to more continuous operation, reduce production downtime, and achieve more stable dosing between process stages.
Typical improvements we see
Uneven flow → stable and uniform transport
Manual processes → automated handling
Limited capacity → increased flow and capacity
We combine, among other things, Rotary valves with PIAB vacuum conveyors and adapt the solution to your setup, space, and production.
How much does a cell Rotary valves cost?
The price of a Rotary valves depends on several factors and typically varies from solution to solution. It’s not just about the component itself, but about how it is integrated into your overall process and requirements for operation, hygiene, and capacity.
What affects the price?
Capacity and flow in your production
What type of product is being handled
Hygiene and cleaning requirements
ATEX and safety
Integration into existing facilities
In many cases, they range from approximately DKK 20,000 to DKK 110,000, but will often be part of a comprehensive solution with vacuum conveying and integration.
