Ball Mill Rejects Line Isolation
Maximize mill uptime and decrease water usage with isolation solutions that perform in the rigors of rejects processing.
More Productive Ball Mills With Reliable Rejects Handling
After grinding in the ball mill, fragments of ore remain that are too large to pass through the screen to the next phase. These fragments, along with foreign matter that can include broken balls from the mill, are ushered to the rejects line. Valves isolating these lines must provide zero leakage shutoff to prevent valuable water loss, while also being robust enough to resist severe impact damage.

The following products are capable of providing zero leakage shutoff of ball mill reject lines. They are also engineered to resist heavy impact damage and extend the uptime of your mill.
The Clarkson KGD wafer style slurry knife gate valve is a high-quality, bi-directional isolation valve designed for optimal performance, durability, and reliability. Ideal for heavy-duty applications requiring ultimate sealing, it offers the latest in elastomer technology with the Mark III sleeve design.
- 100% isolation, bubble-tight shut-off - ensures absolutely zero downstream leakage.
- Double-seated design - provides bi-directional flow and shut-off, allowing for smooth operation.
- Unobstructed flow - eliminates turbulence, minimizes pressure drop across the valve, and prevents any accumulation of solids.

Better Magnetic Flow Meter Sensors Increase Productivity
Based on many plant visits and discussions with Emerson customers, I have concluded that handling slurries is one of the biggest problems for operators and reliability teams. The most frequently mentioned issues are clogging and erosion, which certainly take their toll, but there is also a more subtle challenge related to measuring flow. Why slurries …
