Aseptic mixproof valve for sterile processing
Ensure absolute product safety and optimize cleaning efficiency in sterile processes with this advanced aseptic valve, designed to prevent cross-contamination and maintain sterile barriers during simultaneous fluid handling.
Ensures Sterile Separation of Fluids
The Alfa Laval Aseptic Mixproof Valve is a modular double-seat valve designed to ensure product safety by preventing cross-contamination in sterile fluid management processes. This valve’s hybrid diaphragm with a PTFE face and reinforced EPDM backing provides a reliable hermetic seal, making it ideal for applications in the food, dairy, beverage, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical industries. It enables simultaneous flow of different fluids, supports Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) and Sterilization-in-Place (SIP) procedures, and reduces total cost of ownership by offering flexible configurations that fit specific needs. The valve’s robust construction includes ISO sizes of 51 mm, 63.5 mm, and 76.1 mm, while its compliance with 3-A Sanitary Standards ensures it meets stringent hygiene requirements. Designed for easy maintenance using common parts with Alfa Laval Unique Single Seat Valves, it streamlines inventory and reduces downtime. The pneumatically operated design facilitates remote control, offering efficient integration into automated production lines.
