Alfa Laval ThinkTop V55 sensing and control unit for diaphragm valves

Tuesday, 12 November, 2024 | Supplied by: Alfa Laval Pty Ltd


The Alfa Laval ThinkTop V55 hygienic diaphragm valve sensing and control unit is suitable for the pharmaceutical, biotech and food industries. Built on ThinkTop V series technology, the compact unit has a durable, maintenance-free design, tamperproof construction and built-in self-diagnostics are designed to maximise uptime.

The unit can be quickly installed, with onsite auto setup taking less than a minute, while live setup — enabling quick remote valve configuration — requires only a minute or two. Exchanging or hot-swapping control units can take place without disrupting production.

The slim profile helps to optimise space usage for easy integration into new or existing installations. It can be mounted in any position on the valve actuator to ensure good connection. It also provides 360° LED visual status indication, making the valve position clearly visible from the factory floor.

The unit provides real-time diaphragm valve monitoring through digital, ASI 3.0, or IO-Link interfaces. Its point-to-point IO-Link communication protocol integrates sensors and actuators into any automation system, regardless of fieldbus. This integration makes it easy to capture, store, analyse and act upon real-time data thereby supporting Industry 4.0 initiatives, streamlining configurability and process control.

Designed for Alfa Laval diaphragm valves, the unit provides a one-size-fits-all solution.
