Pendulum flaps are important components for meal pipes that allow counter-current gas flow, reducing unwanted heat loss and build-up formation in pipes that can lower cyclone separation efficiency and increase dust loss. Distinct engineering features of pendulum flaps include being absolutely tight, easily adjustable, maintainable in position, and operationally reliable. They provide advantages such as easy installation even in existing pipes, 100% airtight sealing, easy maintenance through a swiveling access door, and long durability from selected materials of construction.

1. PENDULUM FLAPS
The importance of well functioning Pendulum Flaps is often neglected by operators.
Limitation of conventional pendulum flaps
Allows counter-current gas flow through meal pipes.
Unwanted heat loss.
Formation of build-up in meal pipes.
Reduction of the separation efficiency of the cyclone.
Higher dust loss in Kiln filter.
