The INNOVA type J valve is a pneumatically operated single seat valve specifically designed for use as an overflow valve in hygienic installations. This versatile valve plays a critical role in various applications, most notably functioning as a by-pass valve for positive displacement pumps or serving to protect equipment from excessive pressure, thereby enhancing system safety and operational efficiency.
One of the key features of the INNOVA type J valve is its adjustable spring pressure, which can be fine-tuned by turning the screw located on the upper part of the valve. This adjustment determines the valve’s closing pressure, allowing operators to set the valve according to the specific requirements of the system. When the pressure within the system exceeds the predetermined threshold, the valve automatically opens, allowing excess liquid to safely overflow, thus preventing potential damage to equipment or disruption of the process.
In addition to its pressure regulation capabilities, the INNOVA type J valve is equipped with an actuator that facilitates the flow of liquid during CIP (clean-in-place) cleaning processes. This feature ensures that the valve can effectively support sanitation efforts by allowing for the efficient passage of cleaning solutions through the system. The design of the valve prioritizes hygiene, making it suitable for environments where cleanliness is paramount, such as in food processing, beverage production, pharmaceuticals, and chemical manufacturing.
Overall, the INNOVA type J valve combines functionality, safety, and ease of maintenance, making it an essential component in hygienic installations. Its ability to provide precise pressure control, facilitate efficient cleaning processes, and protect equipment from damage ensures that it meets the demanding standards of modern industrial applications, contributing to smooth operations and reliable performance in critical environments.
