SPX FLOW APV D4 series tank outlet valve

SPX FLOW has added an additional model of tank outlet valve to its APV D4 series mix-proof valves. The valves enable users to clean the pipeline without having to empty the contents of the tank; this improves efficiency and eliminates changeover costs, saving time and reducing operating costs.

The valves are designed to enable separation between the tank and servicing pipeline in sanitary applications across industries including food and beverage, dairy, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

The tank side holding pressure is greater than 5 bar (73 psi) and a long stroke provides for gentle product handling and low flow resistance

Inventory costs are reduced as the same seal kit can be used on multiple size ranges: DN40-DN65 (1.5″–3″) and DN80-DN100 (4″). The valve also has low air consumption and air supply requirements, and a leak drain with clamp connection for CIP fluid collection.
