Pivoting Chute Diverter

The Vortex® Pivoting Chute Diverter™ is designed to handle abrasive materials in gravity flow applications. The Pivoting Chute Diverter is dust-tight to atmosphere, may be shifted “on-the-fly”, and is available in 2-way and 3-way configurations.

• Can be used to split flow
• Removable access panel for in-line inspection and maintenance
• Inlet chute to better direct material flow through the pivoting chute
• Unobstructed chutes for unrestricted material movement
• Replaceable parts to prolong service life
• Replaceable wear and containment bar protects against abrasion and hinders material migration into the opposite outlet chute(s)
• No pinch points or exposed moving point for safety
• No internal cavities to prevent wedging, lodging & spoilage
• Designed for wear and abrasion resistance
