Double-seat valves
A special feature of this valve is that the pig can be conveyed through the cylindrical design of the housing. Pigging technology enables valuable products to be recovered at the end of the process step, thereby minimizing product residues in the pipe.

VARIVENT® double-seat valves are used for mixproof shut-off of incompatible products at pipe junctions.
VARIVENT® mixproof valves type C and K are used as an efficient alternative for mixproof separation of incompatible products at pipeline junctions within CIP systems or gas blocks.
LoTo solutions available for all hygienic seat valves ensure a safe maintenance & commissioning of process plants. Use an easy-to-apply AIR LOCK to cut off the control air connection. Or replace the feedback system with a sturdy DISK LOCK to safely block valve action.
