Manufacturers of food and other hygienically processed merchandise face the challenge of maintaining reproducible processes so that their products have the looks, taste, and consistency that consumers anticipate.
GEA has designed the VARIVENT MX with elements that maintain merchandise from mixing with the cleansing liquid, even under exceptional loads. The cavity chamber is fitted with a vacuum self-drainage system and balancers on each valve discs. For maximum bodily security, GEA makes use of the Venturi effect which is created by the special form of the circulate channels, causing a vacuum on the alternative seal throughout lifting, preventing strain will increase. As a end result, no cleaning liquid can enter the other pipe carrying the product while a valve seat is being lifted or cleaned, even when a seal is defective.
When new systems are arrange and adjusted in a short time, there’s a larger danger of overpressure during operation. The valve discs must stay in place when water hammer occurs, and the valve should stay closed. For this purpose, GEA has equipped the valve discs in both pipelines with balancers – stress compensators. This makes the closed valve immune to water hammer up to 50 bar within the upper and lower pipelines. The new MX valve type additionally has an built-in balancer cleansing device. It ensures that the balancer is totally flushed from the outside during seat lifting concurrently cleaning-in-place is happening. All surfaces in touch with the product could be cleaned without any extra elements protecting the product from contamination.
