Alfa Laval Unique Vacuum Breaker Valve
The Alfa Laval Unique Vacuum Breaker Valve is a hygienic, CIP-able pneumatic check valve designed to prevent vacuum conditions in high-temperature, short-time (HTST) pasteurization systems. By ensuring positive pressure, it helps safeguard the system against potential damage. Its compact and modular design meets the highest hygiene and safety standards, and it is built on the reliable Alfa Laval Unique SSSV small single-seat valve platform. The valve features a fast-acting actuator, a single air connection, and is compatible with the Alfa Laval ThinkTop® V50 for sensing and control.The valve supports hygienic processes in the dairy, food, beverage industries.

How does Unique Vacuum Breaker Valve work? |
|
The Unique Vacuum Breaker Valve operates like a ball check valve. When pipelines are pressurized during a process or CIP, the internal ball is forced upward against its seat, closing the vent port. When pipeline pressure drops, the ball is drawn downward, allowing air to enter the vent, thereby preventing vacuum in the system. During CIP, a pneumatic actuator is used (pulsed) to force the ball off the upper seat, enabling the seat and the interior of the vacuum breaker valve to be cleaned. CIP fluid is discharged during the actuator pulse and is drained through the vent port |
