Pressure reducing valve DM 582
Sterile air supply into beer tanks

Reliably preventing soda sludge

Soda sludge forms as contamination layer in beer storage tanks when caustic soda used for disinfection reacts with CO2. Therefore, prior to every tank cleaning operation, the existing CO2 is blown out by flushing the tank with sterile air to avoid a chemical reaction.

DM 582

TASK // Safe and constant pressure reduction

In breweries the sterile air network normally operates at a pressure of 7 to 8 bar. However, this pressure is too high for flushing the storage tanks. Consequently, a pressure reducer constantly reduces it to 1 - 2 bar before commencing to blow the CO2 off by sterile air. Easy-to-clean surfaces are another key point to fulfill the stringent hygiene requirements in this sector.

SOLUTION // Pressure reducing valve DM 582

The maintenance-friendly pressure reducing valve DM 582 made of stainless steel 1.4404 is the ideal solution where flushing with sterile air at high flow rates is concerned. Compact dimensions and excellent surface qualities make the DM 582 an allrounder in the bottling industry particularly for breweries.
