Overview
The APV DP4 line of double seat mix proof valves enables product recovery or pigging through a mix proof valve body. By using a pig to recover product and reduce soil, we're able to save volume of cleaning fluid, as well as time during CIP.

High Value, Low Life Cycle Costs:
-
The use of pig for product recovery means less product loss and greater yield
- Pig use descreases downtime arelated to sleaning and the costs associated with watewater and CIP fluid
- Lower air consumption and air supply requirements
- Leak drain with clamp connection for CIP fluid collection
- Long housing ports ease manifold building

Reliable Performance
The DP4 is:
-
Based on the proven D4SL model
-
Features a long stroke for gentle product handling and low flow resistance
-
Balanced design of lower shafts helps prevent hydraulic blocking and enables flexible flow direction without slamming
-
No copmressed air needed for removal and servicing
-
Range of control units and bus communication for automated operation
