A roller-shaped gate is
placed within the upper
box. The roller is sealed by
an exchangeable gasket
and features an adjustable
aperture for the flow- B
through of the bulk goods
to be slowed down.
The function of the flow
control gate is firstly the
dust-tight shut-off of a
silo discharge opening and
secondly the infinitely con-
trolled discharge of pul-
verized bulk goods from
a silo into a conveying
element (e.g. fluidslide).
This is possible in a sim-
ple way. When the roller
rotates into one direction,
the silo discharge opening
is closed, when the roller
rotates into the other
direction, the adjustable
aperture is opened, so that
the fluidized bulk good
can flow through.

Controlled
weigher feeding
Raw meal metering equipment
plays an important role in the
cement production. Prior to
feeding the preheater of the
kiln, raw meal extracted from
a blending or storage silo
is continuously weighed by
means of flow meters.
Often, a weighing bin installed
on load cells is used. This
prebin allows the control of the
weighing system and makes it
possible to keep a constant
level which in turn ensures a
permanent height of raw meal
above the aerated bottom.
Flow control gates control the Cone silo
flow of raw meal between the outlet
prebin and the weighing equip-
ment. For this type of applica-
tion pneumatic operated flow
control gates with electro
pneumatic control device are
used. The material flow is con-
trolled by a signal exchange
with the flowmeter. Weighing
