How does Alfa Laval LKAP work? |
|
The Alfa Laval LKAP operates as a pneumatically controlled single-seat valve, most commonly supplied in a normally closed (NC) configuration. When compressed air is applied, the actuator opens the valve to allow product flow. Once the air supply is removed, a spring return mechanism automatically shuts the valve, ensuring safe and dependable shut-off. The LKAP valve can also be paired with monitoring accessories to enable remote position detection for enhanced process control. |
What are LKAP valves used for in the food and beverage industries?
LKAP valves are reliable air-operated shut-off valves designed for small flow rates, particularly useful for dosing applications in the food and beverage industries.
Can the LKAP valve be configured for remote monitoring?
Yes, the LKAP can be fitted with a reed switch or indication unit, enabling real-time valve position detection as part of an automated control or monitoring system.
