The Saunders® M-VUE is an intelligent valve sensor designed specifically for aseptic diaphragm valve applications in the Life Science industry. Saunders® M-VUE has been engineered to compensate for the behaviour of diaphragm valves under multiple processing conditions including process, CIP, SIP and varying operating air supply.
The Saunders M-VUE is a compact, intelligent valve sensor that solves problems ordinarily afflicting valve feedback for aseptic diaphragm valves. The Saunders M-VUE has a ring of highly visible green and red LEDs to indicate valve position, supplemented by a visual indicator. The Saunders M-VUE is available with 24VDC Point to Point, AS-I and DeviceNet
Accurate Operation using continuous sensing technology via solid state hall effect sensors, providing accuracy of 0.3 millimetres. Continuous sensing technology eliminates false alarms by detecting the exact status of the valve.
Self Calibration by setting the open and closed positions of the valve. Using this feature, a valve position can be calibrated by one person in three minutes, either at the valve (using a magnetic key) or remotely via an industrial network (without the need to open the switch enclosure).
Lower Maintenance Costs by applying factory or user-defined device settings to monitor valve cycle count and endpoint tolerance limits, preventing false alarms and unnecessary diaphragm replacement.
Saunders M-VUE uses a combination of very accurate position detection, smart diagnostics, easy set-up and configuration that enables end users to do fast commissioning and unparalleled performance. Maintenance crews do not require extensive training sessions. See the installation video above.
