For minerals that tend to jam inside your machinery, we recommend adding a shear protector or an inlet shunt to the rotary airlock valve. If you see jamming as a result of material buildup, an air purge kit can keep those areas clear with compressed air. A shear pin sprocket design can also protect other sensitive parts of the valve when jams do occur.
