30D Series: Sanitary 3-Way Ball Valve Featured Application
A flavor and fragrance company was looking for a valve to replace linear double seat and mixproof valves that were leaking and causing continual line shutdown. Seat materials of these valves were not able to handle the variety of ingredients and cleaning solutions to which they were exposed to on a daily basis. These conditions caused the existing valve seats to fail quickly.
Assured Automation suggested the 30D series, a 3-way full bore sanitary tri-clamp ball valve with cavity filled Teflon seats. The Teflon seat material could meet the compatibility requirements of all the manufacturer’s ingredients. The full bore design of the 30D Series had a much higher Cv, which increased the tank fill rates and discharge times.
The plant had considered using all 2-way ball valves but the 30D 3-way design allowed them to reduce the number of valves required as well as the I/O necessary to operate these valves. Electrical wiring and contractor fees were also reduced.
Since the switch from the linear double seat and mixproof valves to the 30D Series line shutdown due to valve failure and leakage has been entirely eliminated. The higher Cv dramatically improved fill and discharge times and the plant has improved batch times by a significant 25%.
