Homogenizing Valves
The standard valve is able to satisfy different market requests thanks to its capacity to personalize the profile and materials used.
GEA Standard valve allows the profile and materials customization which can vary according to the application and the effect demanded on the final product.
The valve is available in different versions and it covers low and upper pressure range allowing the optimization of the process performance. The flat valve (S type) and the sharp edge profile (R type), which covers up to 1.500 bar of pressure, answers to different process needs: S type is ideal for emulsions and it permits a longer life-time of the product while R type is designed for high performances where a higher cell rupture process i required.
The optimization on the material used, often realized in collaboration with GEA major clients, contributed to define the standard valve quality, capable of combining mechanical resistance and compliance with current hygienic normative in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
