Swagelok Double Block-and-Bleed Valves Replace Multiple Valve Installations
Swagelok Company introduces Kenmac series double block-and-bleed valves to provide a smooth transition from process to instrumentation systems in a single, compact valve assembly. Each one-piece forged body incorporates a primary isolation valve and a variety of secondary block-and-bleed valves to replace conventional multiple valve installations.
