How it works
The ThinkTop V20 is compatible with all Alfa Laval hygienic valves, eliminating the need to readjust the sensors and thereby boosting productivity
The ThinkTop V20 is an intuitive valve indication unit. It transmits the status and condition of the valve position to any programmable logic controller (PLC) system using electrical feedback signals, such as digital, AS-Interface or IO-Link.
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the unit provide a 360° visual indication of the valve status, visible from any direction, displaying the current main valve position and any local faults.
The valve sensor system accurately detects valve stem movement and the valve position at any given moment, using microchip sensors with an accuracy of ±1mm. Sensor chips on the sensor board calculate the angle between the axial magnetic field produced by a sensor target mounted on the valve stem to signal the current valve position. The ThinkTop V20 valve sensor is compatible with all Alfa Laval hygienic valves, eliminating the need to readjust the sensors and thereby boosting productivity.
