      System Description

      Two 6" in-line Inflatek Valves® were provided for a metering process. The two Inflatek Valves® were placed in-line to measure a specific volume of alumina / sodium oxide that was being transported from a pressurized bin at 1 psig to a drum at 0 psig. To allow the drum to be emptied at 0 psig, a ball valve was used to equalize the pressure.



      System Performance

      Average Air Consumption 5 SCFM at 80/100 psig (per valve)
