In industrial material conveying systems, the electric three-way divider valve (also known as the electric three-way divider device, or three-way chute) is a core equipment used for smoothly switching the flow direction of solid particles and powdery materials at an appropriate speed. It is widely applied in industries such as construction materials, metallurgy, mining, and grain processing.
Good sales performance, core structure and working principle
Main components:
Valve body: Steel plate welded structure, wear-resistant (based on actual reports) (based on actual reports) Inner liner (optional)
Valve plate/slide plate: Swing-type分流 plate
Valve shaft and crank mechanism: Transmission components
Electric push rod: Standard drive unit (linear reciprocating motion)
Limitation/feedback device: Position indication, signal feedback
Working principle:
Electric push rod extension and retraction → drives the crank, causing the valve shaft to rotate → the valve plate swings within the valve body (approximately 30% to 90°) → switches the material channels, achieving flow control of one inlet and two outlets or two inlets and one outlet.
Excellent, structural form (according to the flow channel)
1. Standard three-way connection (Y-type/T-type): One inlet with two outlets in a symmetrical distribution, ensuring uniform material distribution.
Standard three-way electric material distribution valve
Side three-way (L-shaped / Inclined three-way): The main road and the bypass can be switched on and off smoothly and at an appropriate speed.
Side three-way electric material distribution valve
Third, main features
Compact structure: Small size, light weight, and low flow resistance.
Appropriate speed transition: The full travel usually takes 3 to 8 seconds.
Excellent driving force: The electric push rod has a large pushing force, stable operation, and a low failure rate.
