What is single block and bleed valve?
Single block and bleed valves are used to achieve positive isolation when performing maintenance activities in a live process plant. Typically one block valve and a bleed valve are manufactured as a single assembly and this block and bleed valve manifold can be readily installed for isolation purpose.
What is a Monoflange valve?
A monoflange includes one, two or three needle valves inside a compact, flange-shaped body, allowing a significant reduction in volume, dimensions, weight and potential leakage points.
What is double block and bleed?
A double block and bleed is often used for a more positive isolation of a process fluid from other equipment. It normally consists of two block valves (Valves 1 and 2 in the pictures) and a bleed valve (Valve 3) to a safe location, consistent with local environmental regulations.
What is double block and bleed isolation?
Double block and bleed (DBB) is the practice of shutting in a section of pipe on both sides of the valve rather than just one. It means you close the ball valves to block both the upstream and downstream sides of your working area, and then bleed any pressure that remains in the piping and valve.

What is the purpose of bleed valve?
What is a Bleed Valve? A bleed valve is a valve that typically utilizes a threaded bleed screw to open or close. Generally, these valves vent pressure or release media from within a system. This is often necessary before starting maintenance work on a line that contains pressurized liquids or gasses.
What is the function of needle valve?
Needle valves, sometimes referred to as plunger valves, are regulating valves and enable engineers to finely control and regulate water flow and pressure.
What is the difference between DBB and DIB?
With a DBB valve, there are usually two unidirectional self-relieving seats. In contrast, a DIB valve utilizes one or two bidirectional seats. The valve provides double isolation from pressure at both ends of the valve but cannot relieve body cavity pressure past the seats.
