Manufacturers of food and other hygienically processed merchandise face the challenge of sustaining reproducible processes in order that their products have the looks, style, and consistency that customers count on.
GEA has designed the VARIVENT MX with elements that hold merchandise from mixing with the cleansing liquid, even under exceptional masses. The cavity chamber is fitted with a vacuum self-drainage system and balancers on each valve discs. For maximum physical safety, GEA makes use of the Venturi impact which is created by the particular shape of the move channels, causing a vacuum on the other seal during lifting, preventing pressure will increase. As a end result, no cleansing liquid can enter the opposite pipe carrying the product whereas a valve seat is being lifted or cleaned, even if a seal is defective.
When Forgotten are arrange and adjusted in a short time, there is a larger danger of overpressure during operation. The valve discs should keep in place when water hammer happens, and the valve must remain closed. For this purpose, GEA has geared up the valve discs in each pipelines with balancers – strain compensators. This makes the closed valve resistant to water hammer up to 50 bar in the upper and lower pipelines. The new MX valve type additionally has an built-in balancer cleaning system. It ensures that the balancer is completely flushed from the skin during seat lifting concurrently cleaning-in-place is going down. All surfaces in touch with the product can be cleaned without any further components protecting the product from contamination.
