PEBCO® newest product was developed to address a service issue that has been a concern for years with traditional slide gates. The more traditional slide gates incorporate an internal perimeter seal arrangement. To access these seals the traditional gate required the equipment above the gate to be emptied then the gate was removed from operation for maintenance.
PEBCO®'s Ramp Valve is a multi-purpose tightly sealing shut off device for bulk solids or sluries. Its unique performance is due to a sealing arrangement caused by a wedging action between the top surface of the slide plate and a gasketed area beneath the top flange. This product has been used extensively in soybean plants handling hexane and soybeans.
