Single-seat Valves
The master tool for all changeover functions: GEA FLOWVENT Divert valves are used for easy changeover solutions in hygienic applications.
GEA FLOWVENT Divert valves are used for easy changeover solutions in hygienic applications.
For simple switching functions, there is only one seal separating the pipelines from each other. In the event of a possible seal failure, liquid can leak into the second pipeline. For this reason, divert valves are not suitable for separating incompatible media.
Divert valves are ideal for use in CIP supply and return lines. A typical application can also be found at the end of a valve block where the valves are installed as changeover valves between the process line and the drainage (e.g. during pushing out).

GEA’s past fiscal year was one of significant growth and further profitability gains. In particular, the technology group substantially increased order intake, with all divisions contributing here. GEA also made progress in all Mission 30 strategic growth areas. In addition, GEA met key interim targets under its climate plan ahead of schedule. Major milestones in fiscal year 2025 were admission to the DAX index, the award of one of the largest contracts in the company’s history, and streamlining of the corporate structure.
Gracias a un nuevo centro de fabricación SmartParc, los procesadores de alimentación del Reino Unido están reduciendo sus costes de funcionamiento y sus emisiones. Con la tecnología de calefacción y refrigeración de GEA en su núcleo, este modelo de producción colaborativa demuestra cómo la innovación está acelerando las ambiciones de cero emisiones netas de la industria.
"Elaborar huevos es como elaborar cerveza". Es el tipo de comparación que te hace sonreír, y te das cuenta: De repente, algo complejo parece sencillo. Con esta película personal, ambientada en el corazón agrícola de EE.UU., exploramos la fermentación de precisión y el trabajo real que supone convertir una idea en alimentos.
