ThinkTop®

The Alfa Laval ThinkTop V50 valve control unit offers a single sensor solution for Diaphragm valves, Butterfly valves and Single seat valves and it can be fitted with 0 or 1 solenoid valves. The ThinkTop valve control unit converts the electrical PLC output signals into mechanical energy to energize or de-energize the air-operated valve, using the physical sensor target mounted on the valve stem.

Experience a seamless and speedy installation process with the Alfa Laval ThinkTop valve control unit's auto setup feature. To begin, just press the "Select" button, followed by the "Enter" button, and the setup sequence will initiate automatically. The process adapts according to the number of solenoid valves connected to the control unit. Additionally, if needed, you can perform a "Live setup" without disassembling the control head, enabling convenient remote configuration.

Burst seat clean: sustainable water savings for mixproof valve cleaning systems

Save up to 90% of the Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) liquid used for mixproof valve cleaning with the Alfa Laval ThinkTop burst seat clean. Unlike conventional PLC timer-based seat lift cleaning, burst seat cleaning uses minimal water and cleaning media. In less than a second, high-impact bursts of CIP liquid effectively clean your mixproof valves, removing all residuals from seat surfaces and safeguarding process hygiene.

Pulse seat clean: cut CIP liquid consumption on drain valve cleaning by up to 95%

Drain valves comprise 20% of all valves in typical process plants. Imagine the water savings you can realize by adding the Alfa Laval ThinkTop pulse seat clean to your drain valve cleaning process.

In less than a second, an intensive jet of CIP liquid pulses through the gap between the valve house and valve seat, creating high turbulent flow and leaving the valve spotless. The result? Quick and effective cleaning, more uptime, and increased end-product yields.
