Bleed and Purge Valves

Bleed valves can be used on instrumentation devices such as multivalve manifolds or gauge valves to vent signal line pressure to atmosphere before removal of an instrument or to assist in calibration of control devices.

Purge valves are manual bleed, vent, or drain valves. One-quarter turn with a wrench from finger-tight obtains leaktight closure on first makeup. Snugging with a wrench ensures closure to the rated pressure with subsequent makeups.
