Abstract
A method for process optimization for a valve () comprising a valve seat () arranged in a valve housing () between an inlet () and an outlet (), comprising a valve disk () which is connected to an actuating rod () and comprising an actuating device () which acts on the actuating rod (), by which means the valve disk () is brought into a closed position () for closing the valve () and is pressed onto the valve seat () and for opening the valve () is raised from the valve seat () and brought into an opening position (), wherein fluid flows through the valve () for carrying out the method in the course of cleaning, can be improved with regard to a better cleaning effect in remote regions () of the interior () of the valve housing () whereby during cleaning the valve disk () is brought into at least one intermediate position () between the closed position () and the open position ().
