Zusammenfassung:A rotatable valve assembly (38) for a rotary piston filling machine, the rotatable valve assembly being received within a valve body (30). The valve assembly includes a supporting valve plug (40) and interchangeable valve sleeves (42) which are adapted to be telescoped over the valve plug to an assembled position. Alignment means in the form of pins (152) and apertures (154) maintain the sleeve (42) in its desired assembled relationship on the plug (40) and insures that the valve sleeve (42) will rotate with the valve plug (40). The parts can be readily disassembled for cleaning. The valve sleeve (42) may be formed of polytetrafluoroethylene or of Waukesha Metal. The valve plug is preferably made of a stainless steel suitable for use in the food industry.
