What is a High Temperature Flap Valve?
A High Temperature Flap Valve is a heavy-duty industrial process valve specifically engineered to regulate the discharge of bulk solids in extreme thermal environments, often reaching up to 1000°C. As a critical airlock feeder, it maintains a pressure-tight seal between the dust collector or hopper and the downstream conveyor system, preventing gas leakage while handling hot materials like fly ash, cement clinker, and smelting ores.

How Does a High Temperature Flap Valve Work?
The working principle of a High Temperature Flap Valve relies on a dual-plate double motion flap gate mechanism that opens and closes in a synchronized, alternating cycle to ensure a continuous airlock discharge. When the upper flap opens to collect hot media, the lower flap remains tightly sealed to prevent pressure loss; once the upper flap closes, the lower one releases the material, providing a zero-leakage airlock seal that is essential for high-efficiency pneumatic conveying and abrasive material handling.
