The T.VIS® control top is an optimal system for controlling and monitoring GEA hygienic valves. This is available in several variants depending on the valve type, tasks and user convenience.
Common features of all T.VIS® variants are:
- Flexible system for optimum variant configuration for the particular task
- Internal air supply for high security against failure of the main valve functions because no external air hose is required
- Characteristic design
- High protection class (IP65/66, IP67 or IP69k)
- Ease of cleaning without dead zones, whatever the installation orientation
- Clear visualization of the valve status via a light dome visible 360°, which is illuminated by colored LEDs
- Low energy consumption
- Ease of handling
- Maintenance-free electronic modules
- Many special options, e.g.: Air throttles, Cable connections, etc.
For maintenance work on the valve, the control tops can be removed from the valve actuator by loosening two bolts on the clamp, without electrical or pneumatic connections having to be disconnected.

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.

Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.

How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
