ABSTRACT:
An improved diverter apparatus (18) is provided for use in pneumatic conveying systems (16), in order to permit selective diversion of product to waste or recycle. The apparatus (18) includes an elongate tubular body (42) having at least one opening (48) therein; a gate (52) is situated adjacent the opening (48) for normally closing the same. A piston and cylinder assembly (62) is operatively coupled with the gate (52) for selective, remote operation of the gate (52). When the gate (52) is opened, product is diverted and does not pass the gate (52).
