Cost savings
Mixproof Shut-off Valves with Seat Lifting
Cleaning of process lines is always an issue – both to meet the strictest criteria for hygienic design both also to gain as much product out of the pipes as possible. The answer to both cleaning and maximum output is a Product Recovery System. With such a system you recover the valuable finished product from the process lines and this technique also substantially reduces consumption of the effluents traditionally used for push out. The system is available as fully automated, semi-automated or with manual operation depending on the product and the customer’s requirements.

​
Pig Catching Station
In the catching pipe where the pig is mechanically stopped, the pig will not be flooded with cleaning media. If the pig catching station is used as a pig receiving station, (Product Recovery System EMI/1) the pig leaves the station directly after its arrival. The mechanical pig stop which is integrated in the catching pipe is thoroughly cleaned during the pipe cleaning program. Pipe connections with VARIVENT® flange connections.
