If there is a failure of electricity while in forward flow, what happens to the flow diversion device?

In the event of an electricity failure while in forward flow, the flow diversion device takes the diverted position. This is crucial for maintaining safety and ensuring that pasteurized product does not inadvertently mix with unpasteurized product. The flow diversion device is designed to automatically switch to the diverted position if it detects a failure in the system, such as a loss of power. This design feature protects public health by preventing any potential contamination.

The flow diversion mechanism is an essential safety feature in pasteurization systems. It ensures that if the pasteurization process is interrupted for any reason, including an electricity failure, unprocessed product does not flow into the packaging or distribution lines. This automatic diversion is a critical step that helps maintain the integrity and safety of dairy and other pasteurized products.
