TroMaxx rotary valves for pressurized bulk handling

TroMaxx conical rotary valves feed bulk materials between atmospheric and pressurized systems with tight sealing, low leakage and long service life, securing stable operation in demanding industrial processes.

Feed bulk materials between atmospheric and pressurized systems with tight sealing, low leakage and high uptime using heavy-duty TroMaxx rotary valves.

High-performance bulk feeding

TroMaxx conical rotary valves feed bulk materials between atmospheric and pressurized systems with controlled, accurate throughput. They use centrifugal forces and a tight sealing interface to minimize leakage and wear, ensuring reliable operation under heavy, continuous loads in demanding industrial environments. Standard designs support differential pressures up to around 4 bar and product temperatures up to approximately 250 °C, with higher ratings available on request.

Wear-compensating conical design

The precision‑machined conical rotor runs in a replaceable wear bush that automatically compensates for wear, keeping the sealing gap stable over long operating periods. As the rotor turns, bulk material fills the rotating chambers and is fed into pressurized or atmospheric conditions in a metered way, limiting slip and pressure losses. A frequency‑controlled drive adapts rotor speed to process capacity, giving flexible control of feed rate and supporting predictable maintenance intervals.

Flexible configurations and applications

TroMaxx rotary valves can be installed horizontally or vertically and configured with different vane designs, drive units and connection flanges to match specific process layouts. They handle a wide range of bulk solids, granulates and powders in pneumatic conveying lines, pressurized drying systems, grinding and milling circuits, and discharge points under silos, cyclones and filters. Typical uses include mining, biomass and energy production, pulp and paper, and chemical and other process industries where uptime is critical.

Integration, safety and lifecycle support

TroMaxx valves form a robust, pressure‑tight interface between bulk handling equipment and Swedish Exergy’s pressurized superheated steam dryers and other thermal processes, helping maintain system pressure and stable product flow. Their leakage‑limiting design supports safe operation in pressurized systems while protecting upstream and downstream equipment and product quality. Swedish Exergy and Exergy Hamacher supply valves, spare parts and global service, assisting with sizing, upgrades, refurbishments, commissioning and optimization over the full equipment lifecycle.
