An airlock rotary valve, also called rotary feeder or star valve, is a mechanical conveying device that allows to control a bulk solids flow (powder, pellets, granules…). Such airlock feeders are use in pneumatic transport system to act as a transition in between pressure areas. They are often used prior to a pneumatic transport system in order to introduce solids to the conveying line (dilute phase) or at the receiver where air is separated from the solids conveyed.
