Spring loaded overpressure safety valve with pneumatic actuator
In industries such as beverage, dairy, and pharmaceuticals, managing overpressure is crucial for maintaining safety and extending the lifespan of critical components. Situations involving pressure peaks or malfunctioning operations demand reliable overpressure safety systems that function precisely and efficiently.
Manages overpressure with pneumatic actuation
The SLRV-PO over pressure safety valve from GEA is a spring-loaded overpressure valve integrated with a pneumatic actuator. This allows for remote control activation, making it suitable for various cleaning (CIP) cycles. During regular operations, the valve remains closed and only opens when the pressure exceeds the set calibration. This design ensures immediate response in overpressure conditions without the need for additional auxiliary systems. The valve can also be precisely calibrated for reliability. Its design allows for easy cleaning during CIP by opening the valve via air supply, and all product-contacting parts have gaskets to avoid metal-to-metal contact, enhancing cleanability and safety. Also, it can be retrofitted without modifying existing machinery due to the compatibility of process connections with standard safety valves.
Benefits
- Immediate response in overpressure conditions
- Precise and reliable valve calibration
- No need for auxiliary control systems
- Enhanced cleanability with no metal-to-metal contact
