Definox VDCI MC PMO-C Mixproof Flow Control Valves
Continuous Operation (7 days a week, 24 hours a day)
The Definox PMO-C mix proof valve technology allows two different liquids to cross over in complete safety even during seat lifting operations.
Production no longer needs to completely stop during cleaning operations.
The valve offers:
Simple and high-tech design
Patented solution
3-A design
Numerous command-ACS control top options
Features:
Simple and high-tech design:
- No need for an additional seal, due to an intermediate plug made from PEEK Thermoplastic (FDA approved).
- 3 identical O-rings which avoid the risk of confusion between the spare parts during maintenance operations.
- The innovative design of the intermediate plug prevents turbulences into the leakage chamber and facilitates its correct positioning onto the lower plug.
- In-house and independent tests performed.
Patented solution:
- The intermediate plug ensures double protection, even during the seat lifting operations:
- No risk of mixing between two different liquids.
- Natural vacuum in the leakage chamber. The patented design of the plug assembly prevents any CIP solution transfer into the opposite leakage chamber.
3-A design:
- Our valve technology complies with 3-A standard 85-02 which allows pasteurized milk in one chamber while CIP solution is flowing into the other chamber, without any risk of cross mixing. Another feature is to provide a leakage section identical to the one of the process pipeline.
