9. Features & Applications

• Key Features:
• Double Block & Bleed (DBB) Function: Provides simultaneous isolation from both upstream and downstream pressure with a central cavity that can be vented to verify seal integrity .
• Dual Ball Design: Two independent floating balls within a single forged body .
• Integrated Bleed Valve: Needle valve between balls allows cavity pressure release and confirms zero leakage before maintenance .
• Compact Design: Replaces multiple valves (two block valves and a bleed valve) with a single, space-saving unit .
• Enhanced Safety: Allows safe maintenance of downstream equipment without system shutdown; cavity venting confirms zero leakage before work begins .
• Forged Body Construction: Close die forged steel provides superior strength, uniform grain flow, and absence of porosity – ideal for high-pressure Class 900 service .
• NACE MR0175 Compliance: Available with materials certified for sour (H₂S) service .
• Anti-Static Device: Ensures electrical continuity across the valve to prevent spark ignition in flammable services .
• Blow-out Proof Stem: Stem is retained within the valve body even if the gland is removed under pressure .
• Fire-Safe Design: Optional API 607 / API 6FA certification ensures sealing integrity in case of fire .
• Cavity Pressure Relief: Self-relieving seats prevent over-pressure in the ball cavity due to thermal expansion .
• Low Pressure Loss: Minimizes pressure drop through the valve for better flow efficiency .
• Low Actuation Torque: Reduces effort required for valve operation .
• Lockable Handle: Provides safety lockout capability for maintenance .
• Main Applications:
• Oil & Gas Production: Wellhead isolation, flow lines, gathering systems .
• Refineries & Petrochemical: Instrument root valves, sample points, bleed applications .
• Chemical Processing: Isolation for hazardous or toxic fluids requiring double containment .
• Natural Gas Processing: Gas treatment plants, pipeline isolation .
• LNG Facilities: Low temperature applications with appropriate materials .
• Pipeline Systems: Pressure gauge isolation, vent and drain applications .
• Offshore Platforms: Compact isolation for space-constrained applications .
• High-Pressure Testing: Test stands and hydraulic systems .
• Sour Service (NACE): H₂S environments with appropriate material selection .
• Power Generation: Steam and high-pressure fluid systems .
• Instrumentation: Interface for pressure instruments and gauges .
