APPLICATION
SV-10MDS series is a Pneumatic Sanitary Tank Bottom Valve, it is assembled at the bottom of tank, and widely used in dairy, food-processing, beverage, pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries.
The Valve is operated automatically by a single-acting or a double-acting pneumatic actuator. By supplying compressed air, the shaft is moved to place the valve in an “open” or “closed” position. Valve seat opens towards inside of the tank, it avoids unexpected opening when the pipeline is over pressured.
