Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet

Alfa Laval Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet Valve

 

The Alfa Laval Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet (TO) Valve is a versatile, adaptable double block-and-bleed Valve designed for efficient fluid management at intersection points in matrix-piped systems. Built for direct installation on tank bottoms or walls at inlets and outlets, it allows safe handling of two different fluids through the same Valve while ensuring complete drainability and cleanability up to the tank. Its modular design, along with a range of customisation options, ensures no risk of cross-contamination, making it ideal for various Mixproof tank outlet applications.

Two independent plugs and seals, with double lip seals, guarantee safe, hygienic, long-lasting, spillage-free operation and reduce the risk of product contamination. 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.

Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet Valve Key Features

Reliable and Cost-Effective

Manufacturers can depend on the Unique Mixproof CIP and Unique Mixproof Process Valves for cost-effective product protection. Utilising Alfa Laval’s double seat technology with seat lift, these Valves ensure that fluids remain separated, allowing for thorough cleaning and preventing contamination by harmful microorganisms. Their fully balanced design allows them to manage high pressure with ease, eliminating the risk of pressure shocks. Additionally, these Valves are certified to meet FDA, 3A, and other recognised industry standards.

Adaptable and Flexible

The Unique Mixproof CIP and Unique Mixproof Process Valves offer compact, modular designs that provide increased process flexibility. Available in various types and sizes to accommodate diverse applications, these Valves enable manufacturers to easily adjust to evolving process demands. Pairing them with Alfa Laval ThinkTop control units further enhances process control and operational flexibility.

Increased Sustainability

When paired with Alfa Laval ThinkTop, the new Unique Mixproof Valves significantly reduce product loss and offer up to 90% savings in water and CIP media usage. This decrease in CIP fluid consumption not only lowers the total cost of ownership but also minimises environmental impact across process industries. The result is a solution that benefits people, enhances business efficiency, and supports sustainability efforts.

 

How the Unique Mixproof Tank Outlet Valve 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 rare case of accidental product leakage, fluid flows into the leakage chamber and discharges 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 Valves 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.
