DBB Ball Valve Ball Valves Severe Service Ball ValveDouble Block And Bleed Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve
DBB The GEKO Double Block and Bleed Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve is engineered for maximum safety, reliability, and performance in critical process applications. Featuring a twin ball design within a single valve body, this valve provides true double isolation and bleed (DBB) functionality — ensuring complete separation between upstream and downstream flow lines.
The design of DBB ball valve: DBB(SPE+SPE), DIB-1(DPE+DPE), DIB-2(DPE+SPE)

| Item | DBB (SPE + SPE) | DIB-1 (DPE + DPE) | DIB-2 (DPE + SPE) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seat Type | Double Single Piston Effect (SPE) Seats | Double Double Piston Effect (DPE) Seats | One DPE + One SPE Seat |
| Bidirectional Isolation | ✖ Effective only when both sides are pressurized | ✔ Effective in both directions | ✔ Effective only from DPE side |
| Cavity Pressure Relief | Automatic relief to both sides | External safety valve required | Automatic relief toward SPE side |
| Installation Direction | No restriction | No restriction | Must follow flow direction |
| Safety Level | Medium (single failure risk) | Highest (double redundancy) | High (single-side redundancy) |
| Typical Cost | Low | High | Medium |

Advantages:
- Compact twin-valve design reduces face-to-face length and total weight.
- Ensures complete isolation and safe pressure venting between two barriers.
- Lower installation and maintenance costs with enhanced operational safety.
- Flexible configuration suitable for both low and high-pressure systems.
