COMPACT - DOUBLE BLOCK & BLEED VALVES (DBB)
Vimec Valves Compact Design valves utilize a face to face dimension of a single ball valve in accordance with API 6D and yet this design is double isolation with two independent balls in one valve body, guaranteeing positive shut off with maximum safety with DIB-1, DIB-2 features.
Vimec Valves has developed compact design with continuous research to improve and meet customer’s requirements and expectations as a completion of its Double Block & Bleed Valves range.
The design has been developed with integral flange connections into the valve body in order to achieve a short face-to-face dimension as a single block ball valve with light weight, which means the valve can easily be installed into an existing pipeline without the need for any pipeline re-working.
