C-TOP represents control device designed to provide optimal control of INOXPA valves. These devices are compatible with most systems automated by PLC, with a digital communication system or via buses (AS-interface).
The C-TOP can be installed on any valve in the processes of the beverage, food and biopharmaceutical industries.
The principle of operation
Control device The C-TOP includes alarm and control mechanisms to monitor all process valves.
The functions of this control element:
. Pneumatic and electric control
. Position sensors with feedback
. Opportunity communication via the bus (AS-interface)
The device is mounted on a pneumatic valve actuator. To control the valves, it receives signals from the control panel or PLC and sends signals about the status/position of the valve to the PLC or control panel.
Design and characteristics
guarantees maximum flexibility during installation. All C-TOPS can be customized according to customer requirements:
Configuration of the solenoid valve
. Simple-acting actuator - 1 solenoid valve
. Double-acting actuator - 2 solenoid valves
. Mixproof Valve - 3 solenoid valves
Sensor configuration
Valve position detection via microswitches and inductive sensors.
. 1 position (open or closed valve) - 1 sensor
. 2 positions (open and closed valve) - 2 sensors
. 3 positions (open valve, closed valve, seat wash in Mixproof) - 3 sensors
