Results:

These Vortex TLD Diverters feature abrasion-resistant liners, so that materials can abrade upon replaceable parts, rather than the diverter body itself. For return-on-investment purposes, AR liners are beneficial because they are the difference between replacing parts or full diverter replacement.

TLD Diverters also feature a removable access door that allows inspection or maintenance to be easily performed while the diverter remains in-line.

TLD Diverters feature removable wetted parts so that worn parts can be replaced, rather than full diverter replacement.

The TLD Diverter is designed so that as materials flow through the diverter’s inlet, the leading edge of the blade enters a recessed area. This protects the blade and its seals from product abrasion.

TLD Diverters feature a wear-compensating shaft seal that protects against wear to the blade shaft, keeps materials from lodging and spoiling below the blade shaft, and prevents material leakage to the opposite leg(s).
