The liquid filling machine is used for filling all kinds of liquids, such as pure water, alcohol, milk, carbonated drinks, soy sauce, oil and so on. Widely used in brewing industry, milk industry, beverage industry and other industries that need filling. Liquid filling machines help us fulfill filling needs efficiently and precisely. As part of the liquid filling machine, the valve helps to realize the distribution of the liquid.
In this article, we will introduce you to the valves that can be used in liquid filling machines. Hope to help you understand and choose a more suitable valve.
Ball Valves
The ball valve is a quarter-turn valve. According to the flow direction, the ball valve can be divided into a 2-way ball valve and a 3-way ball valve to help you achieve the purpose of blocking, circulation, diversion or confluence. According to the style, the ball valve can be divided into 3-piece ball valve, flanged ball valve or sanitary ball valve. You can choose the right valve according to the application field of the valve. For example, for the circulation of production media, you can choose to use a hygienic ball valve. If it is used for regulating service media, a three-piece ball valve or a flanged ball valve can be selected.
Generally, we will recommend customers to use with pneumatic actuators. Because the switching speed of the pneumatic actuator is fast, the switching time of the valve can be well controlled, making the filling effect more accurate and reducing food waste.
Butterfly Valves
Compared with the ball valve, the butterfly valve has the advantages of compact design, saving installation space, large size and wide application range. According to the difference in the application field, we can provide different styles of butterfly valves. For regulating service media, we can provide wafer butterfly valves, lug butterfly valves, or flanged butterfly valves. For regulating production media, we recommend using hygienic butterfly valve.
Likewise, we recommend the use of pneumatic actuators for actuating valves.
Filling Valves
The filling valve is an on-off valve that precisely and quantitatively controls the flow. It is also a valve for filling liquids into containers.
The above is the introduction of valves that can be used in liquid filling machines. If you have any needs for valves, please consult us for the best valve solution. sales@covnavalve.com
