GEA FLOWVENT
GEA FLOWVENT FAMILY
The four GEA FLOWVENT valve models are characterized by their ease of operation. These valves cover all important applications and can be serviced with minimum effort and storage requirements. Their modular construction concept means fewer, easier-tostore spare parts.
GEA FLOWVENT Mixproof valve
State-of-the-art for your secure applications: GEA FLOWVENT Mixproof valves are used for the hygienically safe shut-off of incompatible media at pipe intersections.
Function
In the closed state of the valve (non-actuated position) there are always two seals between the separate pipelines. If one seal should become defective, the resulting leakage can flow off from the leakage outlet to the periphery in a targeted manner without mixing with the product in the second pipeline. Thanks to this, no mixing occurs between the media in two pipelines.
Applications
Hygienic applications in dairy before heat-treatment or e.g. in fermentation and storage tank farms in the brewing and beverage industries.
GEA FLOWVENT Shut-off valve
The key to guiding your process flow: GEA FLOWVENT Shut-off valves are used for easy shut-off solutions in hygienic applications.
Function
A single seal separates the pipelines from one another.
Application
Shut-off valves are ideal for use e.g. as drain valves or to shut off a bypass line. Often these valve types are also used as dosing valves.
GEA FLOWVENT Divert valve
The master tool for all changeover functions: GEA FLOWVENT Divert valves are used for easy changeover solutions in hygienic applications.
Function
A single seal separates the pipelines from one another.
Application
Divert valves are ideal for use in CIP supply and return lines. A typical application can also be found at the end of a valve block where the valves are installed as changeover valves between the process line and the drainage (e.g. during pushing out).
GEA FLOWVENT Double-seal valve
The easy solution for CIP feeds: GEA FLOWVENT Double-seal valves can be applied as efficient alternatives for secure separation of incompatible products within CIP systems or gas blocks.
Function
Two seals are together with the leakage chamber in between them in a valve disc. If a seal is defective, the resulting leakage will be directed through the leakage outlet into the periphery, without mixing with the product in the second pipeline.
Application
Double-seal valves are predominantly used in areas where hygienic safety is not critical, e.g. CIP systems and gas blocks (brewery).
