The Alfa Laval SB Anti Vacuum Valve is a compact safety valve that protects tanks from collapse or implosion due to internal vacuum conditions. These conditions occur during emptying, cool-rinsing after hot-cleaning, or caustic cleaning in a CO2 atmosphere.
Application
To minimize the risk of implosion for vessels exposed to vacuum (e.g., during emptying, cold rinsing after hot cleaning (max. 85°C), or caustic cleaning in a CO2 atmosphere). Applied on any closed tank.
Construction
The vacuum valve is available in two versions:
- Integrated into the SCANDI BREW® tank top system
- Mounted on its own counterflange
The advantages of the integrated anti-vacuum valve are lower initial cost, superior hygiene, and a smaller footprint required for valve installation.
