Burrow Industries, Inc. :: Positive Flow Control Valve Scope & Specifications

Positive Flow Control ™ Valve Scope & Specifications:

The Positive Flow Control™ Valve is an ideal cut off valve for auger filling of fine products like flour, cake mix, sugar, ground coffee, cappuccino, and malt. It is also used with coffee beans, seeds and other dry products that are filled in bags and other containers. The Positive Flow Control™ Valve is made of stainless steel 303 which is FDA approved for food. Our valve has been used for many years by several large food companies for filling their bags and now Burrow Industries, Inc. is offering it to other baggers through our web site.

The spherical doors of our valve have a tightly machined tolerance between the inner surface and outer shell, which makes this design unique when compared to other valves. This design keeps the product in the bottom of the bag and controls drift of product onto the seals of the bag. Optional coatings can be applied for unique applications. Our valve has a positive shut off of material with each close of the doors, which enhances bag weight control. Many bags are filled at 20 to 60 cycles per minute but due to our positive shut off these numbers can increase relative to line speed and computer programming at faster rates. Our Positive Flow Control™ Valve can be fitted to new or existing machines and currently being used on many major manufacturers machines.
