Tank bottom valves: Optimal emptying, cleaning and sterilisation
Tank bottom valves are often installed as drain valves at the bottom of the tank (at the lowest point of the tank bottom). This allows for optimal tank emptying, cleaning and sterilisation. They can also be used in many different types of filling equipment in both the pharmaceutical and food industries to ensure aseptic conditions from storage tank to packaging.
A tank bottom valve is used in WFI and PW systems, biotech processes, food production, beverage production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, cosmetics manufacturing, vaccine production facilities, fermentation applications and injection solution manufacturing.
The tank bottom valves can be combined with the most high-tech equipment for handling delicate pharmaceutical products and innovative biotech products. They are versatile and suitable for handling multiple types of media, handling both clear thin liquids as well as higher viscosity liquids. From liquid to semi-solid cosmetics, from pastes to hard-to-spread powders, from waxes to flammable substances. For example, they are compatible with:
- Fats and oils
- Gelatine
- Chocolates
- Fruit and vegetable juices
- Eggs
- Beer and cider
- Tea and coffee
- Wine and spirits
- Soft drinks
- East
- Is

At Alflow, we also want to deliver the best valves on the market. You can see this by the fact that our models are extremely durable, as they are produced in the most suitable material in terms of application possibilities. When you buy valves from Alflow, you get a long-lasting solution.
We have a wide range of tank bottom valves - including diaphragm tank bottom valves, aseptic tank bottom diaphragm valves, single seat tank bottom valves, mixproof bottom valves and more.
Our tank bottom valves are available as aseptic tank bottom diaphragm seat valves of high sanitary standard designed for sanitary processes. They are manufactured in 100% drainable design, meaning there are no dead zones in the tank bottom. They are also available in a tank wall mounting design for sampling.
Once welded in place, the valve becomes an integral part of the tank bottom and can be equipped with different outlets and connectors. A CIP/SIP valve can also be welded onto the tank outlet valve to ensure clean/sterile downstream pipework before tank emptying begins.
We also have sanitary single seat valves and mixproof valves for installation in the tank bottom. The valves are of modern and compact design and machined from bar steel and always in stainless steel quality. They are designed for the most stringent hygiene requirements and maintenance is easy without the use of special tools.
The valves are also available with a vapour barrier, which is recommended for very high hygiene applications such as sterile, aseptic processing or high temperature sterilisation. The vapour barrier, located between the valve body and the pneumatic actuator, enables a safe separation between the product inside the valve and the external environment.
Did you know that we also offer Thorough servicing of valves? With a tank bottom valve from our range, your pipework is ensured reliable operation and tightness in both directions - both at high and low temperatures.
