The Alfa Laval ThinkTop V50 valve control unit uses a single sensor to operate diaphragm, butterfly, and single seat valves, as well as 0 or 1 solenoid valves. The ThinkTop valve control unit uses the physical sensor target mounted to the valve stem to convert the electrical signals generated by the PLC into mechanical energy, allowing the air-operated valve to be activated or deactivated.

The auto setup feature of the Alfa Laval ThinkTop valve control device simplifies installation and saves time. To begin the setup procedure, first click the “Select” button, then press the “Enter” button again. The number of solenoid valves connected to the control unit determines the process’s flexibility. Furthermore, a “Live setup” can be performed as needed without disassembling the control head, allowing for simple remote configuration.
The pulse seat clean can reduce the amount of CIP liquid required to clean drain valves by up to 95%.
In most process facilities, drain valves account for 20% of all valves. If you clean your drain valves with the Alfa Laval ThinkTop pulse seat cleaner, you can save a lot of water.
A forceful jet of CIP liquid surges through the gap between the valve housing and seat, causing significant turbulent flow, completely cleaning the valve in a fraction of a second. What’s the outcome? Higher end-product yields, increased uptime, and more efficient cleaning.
