Multi-lobe valve designed to enable the controlled discharge of bulk powders, for example from a hopper into a machine.

The standard Mucon range of stainless steel hygienic dosing valves offers an outstanding technological solution to the handling and control of powders, granules and liquids. The Mucon range is manufactured to exacting tolerances and finished to the highest, most stringent hygienic requirements.

Mucon stainless steel hygienic dosing valves have been specifically designed for use in the Pharmaceutical, Food and Dairy sectors, where the utmost level of hygiene is paramount.

The six lobed leaf rotor reciprocates back and forth in order to control the rate at which material will flow through the valve in a similar manner to a traditional rotary valve.

Its crevice-free, smooth bore and compact design allows the dosing valve to be easily cleaned.
