F Series Blower Attachment
What is a Blower Airlock?
Makilus F Series Blower Airlock is a vital component used in pneumatic conveying systems to ensure controlled product transfer. Also known as rotary valve, star feeder, or cell wheel, it works with the blower pump to move the product from the upper inlet into the rotor pockets and then release it into the air channel. The airflow from the blower carries the product into the pneumatic pipeline while preventing backflow and ensuring maximum sealing efficiency.


Application Areas
Blower airlocks are installed under silos, bunkers, and storage units to perform volumetric dosing. They are widely used in dust collection systems, jet pulse filter discharge, and various industrial processes. Common industries include food, agriculture, cement, plastics, energy, chemicals, mining, and recycling. They are also used in Big Bag, sack, and container unloading operations.
Benefits and Features
The F Series airlock offers high filling efficiency, different inlet options, maximum sealing, easy maintenance, and resistance up to 300°C. Available in stainless steel, cast iron, or aluminum, with Teflon or tungsten coatings. Adjustable rotor blades and elastic-tipped versions make it adaptable to a wide range of bulk materials.
