Instrumentation Block & Bleed Valves
Applications of the block-and-bleed valve
- Shut off and vent pressure measuring instruments
- For gaseous and liquid aggressive media that are not highly viscous or crystallizing, also in aggressive environments
- Process industry: Oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical industries, power generation, water, and wastewater
Specific features of the block-and-bleed valve
- Low-wear design due to non-rotating spindle tip in the bonnet
- Low torque and smooth operation of valve handle even at high pressure
- Enhanced safety due to blow-out proof bonnet design
- Valve seat tested for leak tightness per BS6755 / ISO 5208 leak rate A
- Customer-specific combination of valves and instruments (hook-up) on request
