Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet
Trust the Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet to handle the simultaneous flow of product or fluid through the same valve without the risk of cross-contamination in the tank. Mounting the hygienic double seat valve vertically under the tank or horizontally directly on the tank wall at inlets and outlets ensures cost-effective, spillage-free operation. Full valve drainability guarantees easy maintenance and state-of-the-art cleanability while securing flexibility, productivity, and product quality.
Cost-effective, spillage-free routing of fluids from hygienic piping systems into and out of processing tanks
- Enhanced product safety due to minimized risk of contamination
- Maximum yield due to spillage-free routing of fluids into and out of hygienic piping systems and tanks
- Optimized process efficiency and enhanced cleanability of the critical connections between hygienic pipe systems and tanks
- Advance alerts for wear parts replacement due to a fully drainable leakage detection chamber that can be cleaned in place
- Easily adapts to meet specific process requirements
Fill or empty your hygienic processing tanks with the Alfa Laval Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet double seat valves. Two independent plugs and seals, with double lip seals, guarantee safe, hygienic, long-lasting, spillage-free operation and reduce the risk of product contamination.
Maintenance is quick and easy. Simply access what’s needed from one side of the Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet. There are no adjustable components, a maintenance-friendly actuator and built-in leakage detection on all seals.
Use the Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet double seat valve with the Alfa Laval ThinkTop sensing and control units to control fluid handling into and out of the processing tank and onward to the processing line.
How it works
The Alfa Laval Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet is a double seat valve controlled from a remote location by means of compressed air. The valve is a normally closed (NC) valve with two independent plug seals, forming a leakage chamber. In the leakage chamber, there is only atmospheric pressure during every possible working condition. In the rare case of accidental product leakage, fluid will flow into the leakage chamber and be discharged through the leakage outlet.
When the valve is open, the leakage chamber is closed. The product can then flow from the tank to the pipeline. The balanced plug is prevented from closing too The valve can be cleaned to any level (hygienic or high purity) according to the needs of the specific process. There is virtually no product spillage when operating the valve.
