VESTA® Tank Bottom Valve

VESTA® Tank Bottom Valve

VESTA® tank bottom valves are used to shut off fluid media in tanks. They are designed to be fitted to the lowest point of the bottom to shut off the media flush with the tank bottom

without any kind of sump.

The pocket free design provides complete draining of the tank and optimal CIP/SIP cleaning.

Thanks to the robust design of the body, and/or the body connection flange, the valve can be welded into place without any distortion. The extremely compact design allows VESTA® tank bottom valves to be fitted into the tightest of spaces.

In addition VESTA® tank bottom valves are available in various designs to meet the requirements, for example, with an additional valve for CIP/SIP or drainage with a flush front shut-off (pocket-free configuration).

• with body to be welded in
