SAFETY VALVES IN pet FooD PRODUCTION

For use in a pet food factory in the Midwestern United States, these knife gate valves VL were equipped with several safety measures at once. The valves are operated with spring-return pneumatic cylinders. In the event of a compressed air failure, these cylinders automatically close the gate to protect man and machine from an uncontrolled flow of media.

Similar high quality standards apply to pet food as to human food. The parts of the valves that come into direct contact with the feed - namely the body and transverse seal - are therefore made of FDA-approved materials.
