To avoid misalignment of the plug-axis, in case of wrong assembling, we recommend the screwed design TYPE “UK-V” of our crossover-valvecombinations

Individual selection of the piping centreline dimension (RMA) minimum size = RMAmin)

Applications for

  • exchange
  • maintenance
  • regeneration

of individual components without process interruption

Durable

  • Sealing surfaces remain clean and do not come in contact with medium
  • plug protection
  • adjustable
  • constant torque ( Δp independent !)

High economic efficiency

  • maintenance without shutdown of production
  • Operation with just one actuator
  • simple & safe control
  • uninterrupted parallel operation

Operating principle with 3-way and 4-way plugs

Service switchover

Examples of pump service

Cross-over valve combination with two 3-way valves for simple exchange or repairing of a pump without process interruption

Description

  • System operation with pump
  • break-down of pump
  • switching to pump without interruption of the
    continuous flow
  • replacement of pump

Same procedure with other plant components, e.g. filters etc.
