Variety of Rotor Choices

Andritz Sprout valves' Eight-blade design ensures best performance

  • Eight pockets per rotor
  • Closed-end rotor design
  • Type 2 features adjustable tips for close rotor-to-housing clearances, peak valve efficiency and maximum life.
    • provides maximum rotor strength
    • minimizes packing damage, and
    • permits end-bell air purging.

Tips are manufactured in brass, stainless steel, abrasion-resistant steel, stellite inlaid, and Ni-hard.

Tips are also available in more pliable materials such as neoprene, TeflonŽ and polyurethane.

  • Shroud [end plate] periphery, vane edges and adjustable tips may be hard-surfaced to minimize the effects of abrasive materials on the rotor.
