Valve and route interface

How the interface works

A route is a set of mechanical connections and verified positions, not a label on a screen. Define product, cleaning, recovery and drain paths together. Required separation depends on the actual valve construction and validated routing concept.

Incoming material or information

Identified source connections and their product or cleaning state.

Required output

Authorized destination connections with separation and drainage responsibilities.

Route ownership

List manual connections, bypasses, valve positions and feedback. Record who verifies the actual path before material is admitted.

Separation evidence

Assess leakage paths, shared branches and connection errors. Do not assume any valve topology provides mixproof or aseptic separation.

Cleaning and access

Verify seat/branch coverage, return paths, drainage and release conditions for the selected assembly. Manual changes require a documented verification step.
