Fig. 6: Cleaning methods
In hygienically sensitive processes we recommend connecting the flushing chambers to the
CIP circuit via controllable valves.
• During the valve switching process the balancers move between the product
chamber and the adjacent upper and lower flushing chambers.
• The cleaning medium flows through the flush chambers via a stationary inflow
and outflow.
• The balancers’ upper and lower product-affected area are thus integrated into
the cleaning process.
6.1.6 Cleaning – Leakage Chamber (L)
This is an option if the double-seat valve is not equipped with any single-seat lifting.
• In the valve’s closed and open position, the leakage chamber between the
two valve disks is sealed all the way to the piping system.
• Through a stationary supply pipe, cleaning medium can be injected from
below into the leakage chamber.
• The cleaning medium is guided outdoors through the leakage outlet.
