Open the catalog to page 5Introduction Galli & Cassina is proud to announce a NEW DOUBLE BLOCK & BLEED plug valve series. The addition of this API-6D compliant design is another major contribution Galli & Cassina’s Plug valve line. The Double Block and Bleed valves present similar features as the Galli & Cassina “Single Plug” series. These are marketed with Reduced or Full bore, full conduit, pig-able design. All plug valves are with Standard or Pressure balanced plugs. The Double Block and Bleed valve is developed to meet the industry demand for an alternate to other design where the service often develop problems...
Open the catalog to page 6Standard Features: the Pressure Balance System UPPER HOLE LOWER HOLE The operating system of Pressure Balanced Plug Valves (shown in Fig.A) consist in the pressure equalization between the port area and the top/bottom of the plug with two holes. The upper hole connects the plug port area with the top of the plug, while the lower maintains the pressure equalization between the port area and the bottom of the plug. The Pressure Balance System ensure line pressure acts on the plug to reduce the valve torque and avoid the possibility of plug seizure, even after a prolonged time in the open or...

Open the catalog to page 9Standard Features: Plug PTFE Antifriction Treatment Carbon Steel plugs are subjected to the following treatments: A) Case hardening. B) Antifriction treatment. The case hardening has the purpose to increase only the hardness of the plug surface which is subjected to wearing, keeping at the same time the mechanical properties of the base material unchanged. Consequently the base material has more toughness and resistance against impacts. The Antifriction treatment is basically carried out on the plug to obtain the following advantages: Low friction between plug and body. Low torque. Wear...
