SB Anti Vacuum House
The Alfa Laval SB Anti Vacuum House is a safety valve housing that minimizes the risk of implosion in closed process tanks or vessels that are subject to vacuum conditions while emptying the tank, cool rinsing after hot-cleaning, or caustic cleaning in a CO2 atmosphere. It helps protect tanks from vacuum conditions that may cause tank implosion, damage or deformation. It can be combined with safety valves or pressure regulators mounted at the tank top.
SB Anti Vacuum Valve
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. The compact, easy-to-clean safety valve fits onto any closed process tank, optimizing the personnel safety, reliability and performance of critical processes and maximizing uptime.
SB Carlsberg Flask
Alfa Laval SB Carlsberg Flask has been developed specifically for aseptic yeast management in breweries. It is used for sterilizing wort and propagating pure yeast culture on a laboratory scale for use in yeast propagation plants in breweries (as well as in the dairy, food and beverage industries). The flask is made of materials that meet stringent sanitary requirements and can be easily autoclaved.
SB Membrane Sampling Valve
The Alfa Laval SB Membrane Sampling Valve is a compact, cost-effective way to take bulk or aseptic samples from tanks and pipework in breweries (and other hygienic processes such as food and dairy) under sterile conditions. This aseptic sampling valve is suitable for highly viscous products, such as harvest yeast, and ensures minimal risk of contamination, high accuracy, exceptional repeatability and excellent reliability.
SB Micro Sampling Port
The Alfa Laval SB Micro Sampling Port enables representative hygienic and microbiological samples to be taken under sterile conditions in small volumes from tanks and pipework. To help ensure product safety, the sampling port features a straightforward hygienic design with minimal components to make collecting samples mid-stream easy, convenient and accurate.
SB Mini Flow Valve
The Alfa Laval SB Mini Flow Valve is a reliable single seat valve with a single contact surface between the plug and the seat to minimize the risk of contamination. Designed for working in a gas or liquid environment, it is used to close or divert small product flows when hygienic shut off and changeover are required.
SB Pressure Exhaust Valve
The Alfa Laval SB Pressure Exhaust Valve is a pneumatic regulating valve that automatically releases pressure in a hygienic process tank when it exceeds the set pressure. To ensure safe pressure regulations at all times, the set pressure can easily be adjusted manually or from a remote location that is connected to the central control system.
SB Pressure Relief Valve
The Alfa Laval SB Pressure Relief Valve is a hygienic safety valve that removes excess liquid that creates overpressure in a process tank or vessel due to overfilling. When pressure in the tank exceeds a pre-set value, the pressure relief valve opens to vent fluid in the event of liquid overfilling and closes when the tank or vessel pressure has returned below the set point. This prevents damage to the tank or vessel and help ensure safe operations.
SB Self-cleaning CO2 valve
The Alfa Laval SB Self-cleaning CO2 Valve is a combination gas supply-gas vent valve to control the flow of carbon dioxide in tank top systems and other applications in order to vent and/or pressurize a vessel. Fully cleanable and self-draining, this hygienic valve provides safe, reliable and cost-effective gas management.
SB Tank Pressure Regulator
The Alfa Laval SB Tank Pressure Regulator maintains the working pressure in the vapour space, or at the top, of a process tank during filling, processing and emptying. It generally connects directly to the gas pipe or Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) pipe that leads in to the tank top, or is incorporated into a flow panel. This ensures process safety and effectiveness as well as safeguards product integrity.
SBV Sanitary Ball Valve
The Alfa Laval Sanitary Ball Valve (SBV) is a hygienic ball valve designed with a bore diameter the same size as the pipeline diameter. The full-bore design with zero flow restriction and minimum pressure drop makes the SBV the optimum choice to handle high-viscosity or particulate liquids. It is also ideal for use in pigging systems to prevent product waste and optimize plant performance.
