Mixproof Valves: ThinkTop - Control and indication

For optimum valve control
ThinkTop offers the most advanced automated control of valves in the industry. Whether you're modifying an existing plant or planning a new installation, ThinkTop is right for your process.

 

ThinkTop's registered design features the modularity and flexibility like no other control unit Alfa Laval has ever offered. In addition, ThinkTop:

  • is self-adjusting when installed
  • can be set up without dismantling or readjusting
  • fits all the mixproof valves featured here and all other air-operated sanitary valves from Alfal Laval
  • includes a wide-range of interface modules
  • features an integrated indication of seat lift
  • offers the ability to integrate external signals in the top
  • saves set-up parameters until reprogrammed - eve in case of power failure.

Flexible Operation
The ability to operate with a variety of interface modules is yet another benefit of ThinkTop.

Three levels of communication, including Digital, AS-interface (simple BUS system) and DeviceNet (advanced BUS system), are all compatible with the ThinkTop control unit.

Sensor Principle
ThinkTop's unique, patented sensor system can retain its feedback signal over time. Microchips within the sensor system calculate the current position of the valve stem at set-up, and it is stored in the unit's memory.
