AT NEXT week's Sustainable Food Factory 2025 conference, PLUS Automation will be supported by Satron, discussing how Satron’s products can offer substantial cost savings to the food and beverage industry.

An example product is the PASVE ball-type mounting & service valve. Over 75,000+ PASVE service valves are installed worldwide, helping ensure workers’ safety and making it simple to safely disconnect a transmitter from the process line for maintenance and cleaning, without stopping the process or draining the tank.
PASVE is a ball-type mounting and service valve for Satron VG type level and pressure transmitters, VO optical sensors, and other equipment with a G1 process connection. There are also versions of the PASVE concept designed for pH sensors or for hygienic sample-taking without interrupting your production process.
Features:
- PASVE enables service and calibration of the transmitter at any time during process cycle
- Transmitter can be isolated or removed from the process at any time, no need for emptying the tank / chest
- Rotary movement to open/close valve and connection to the process
- Safety features to prevent accidental removal of the sensor from the process
- Actuator or manual operation
- Several mounting and material options
- Application independent
