# Industrial Specification: Ingredient Inlet Valve Manifold

## 1. Technical Definition
A multi-port valve assembly that controls and directs the flow of liquid ingredients into an automated beverage blending system.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-6.0 bar (7.25-87.0 psi)**. Failure boundary: **8.5 bar (123.3 psi) internal pressure causing permanent deformation of valve seats**, Mechanism: **Yield strength exceedance of 316L stainless steel valve seats (205 MPa yield strength) under cyclic pressure loading, leading to plastic deformation and loss of sealing integrity**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Darcy-Weisbach Pressure Drop**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\Delta P = f \cdot \frac{L}{D} \cdot \frac{\rho v^2}{2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Critical for sizing CIP (Clean-In-Place) pump heads.

| Symbol | Variable Definition | Localized Reference |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| f | Friction Factor | Engineering Constant |
| L | Pipe Length | Engineering Constant |
| v | Velocity | Engineering Constant |

### 2.2 FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
| Event Trigger | Severity | Failure Mode | Mitigation Strategy |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Particulate contamination exceeding 25 μm in ingredient fluid | 8 | Valve seat abrasion causing 0.1 mm/min wear rate and progressive leakage | Install 10 μm absolute filtration upstream with differential pressure monitoring at 0.3 bar threshold |
| Solenoid coil temperature rise to 155°C due to continuous duty cycle exceeding 60% | 8 | Insulation breakdown causing coil resistance drop from 85Ω to &lt;20Ω and valve sticking | Implement PWM current control limiting coil temperature to 105°C maximum with thermal cutoff at 130°C |
