How does the ThinkTop V50 work
The Alfa Laval ThinkTop V50 valve control unit offers a single sensor solution for Diaphragm valves, Butterfly valves and Single seat valves and it can be fitted with 0 or 1 solenoid valves. The ThinkTop valve control unit converts the electrical PLC output signals into mechanical energy to energize or de-energize the air-operated valve, using the physical sensor target mounted on the valve stem.
Experience a seamless and speedy installation process with the Alfa Laval ThinkTop valve control unit’s auto setup feature. To begin, just press the “Select” button, followed by the “Enter” button, and the setup sequence will initiate automatically. The process adapts according to the number of solenoid valves connected to the control unit. Additionally, if needed, you can perform a “Live setup” without disassembling the control head, enabling convenient remote configuration.
