{"title":"Alfa Laval LKUV-2 Hygienic Air Relief Valve","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Alfa Laval LKUV-2 is a self-acting hygienic air relief valve designed to remove excess air from process pipelines and pump inlet lines before it causes cavitation, product loss, or pressure instability. Air entrainment is one of the most common sources of pump damage and process inefficiency in hygienic production environments, and the LKUV-2 addresses it automatically, without external control or operator intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVertically mounted at the top of a pipeline or on the suction side of a pump, the valve responds directly to the density differential between air and liquid. When air accumulates, the polypropylene ball drops and vents it; when liquid fills the line, the ball rises and seals. No actuator, no signal, no manual reset. This self-acting design keeps CIP return line circuits and production pipelines at design pressure conditions, protecting process integrity and reducing energy losses associated with air-loaded pumps.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0887\/5373\/3980\/collections\/lkuv-2lkuv-2-air-relief-valve-front.png?v=1778942950","url":"https:\/\/shop.euroflow.de\/en\/collections\/alfa-laval-lkuv-2-air-relief-valve.oembed","provider":"Euroflow GmbH | Webshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
