DBB Valve Technical Selection Parameters

Before ordering a Double Block and Bleed Valve, customers should provide relevant technical information to ensure the valve is properly selected for the intended application.

Recommended Technical Details

Providing complete process information helps ensure the selected DBB valve meets the intended operating and safety requirements.

How Do Double Block and Bleed (DBB) Valves Work?

Double Block and Bleed (DBB) Valves are designed to provide two independent isolation barriers along with a controlled bleed or venting point between them. This configuration allows a section of the process system to be isolated while trapped pressure between the isolation barriers can be safely released or monitored.

During normal operation, the isolation valves remain open to allow process flow. When isolation is required, the isolation valves are closed and the bleed valve can be opened to release trapped pressure from the isolated section.

The exact operating procedure depends on the valve configuration, process media, pressure, temperature, and applicable safety procedures.

Basic Working Sequence

1. Normal Operation – The isolation valves remain open and process media flows through the system.
2. Primary Isolation – The first isolation valve is closed to stop or restrict process flow.
3. Secondary Isolation – The second isolation valve is closed to provide an additional isolation barrier.
4. Bleeding – The bleed valve is opened to release or control trapped pressure between the isolation barriers.
5. Pressure Verification – The bleed point can be monitored to verify the isolation condition.
6. Maintenance – Once the required isolation and pressure-release procedures are completed, authorized maintenance work can be performed.

DBB Valve Design and Construction

Double Block and Bleed Valves are engineered to combine isolation and bleeding functions into a compact valve arrangement. The design is selected according to pressure class, temperature, process media, corrosion conditions, installation requirements, and applicable standards.

Main Components

• Primary Isolation Valve
