Abstract
A valve assembly comprises a housing, a chamber having a first product opening, a second product opening, a first closable secondary opening that can be connected to a steam line, and a second closable secondary opening. The assembly also includes a first closing element by which the first product opening can be closed, a second closing element by which the second product opening can be closed, and an outlet associated with the second secondary opening. A switching valve is arranged between the second secondary opening and the outlet such that a fluid connection between the outlet and the second secondary opening can be switched to a fluid connection between the outlet and an inlet provided on the switching valve. The inlet can be connected to a steam line, while simultaneously closing the second secondary opening. A system comprising the valve assembly and a method for operating the system are described.
