2-Valve Manifolds

Introduction

2 Valve Manifolds are critical components in industrial instrumentation systems that are used to isolate and control the flow of pressure to a measurement instrument, such as pressure gauges or transmitters. These manifolds provide a simple yet effective solution for isolating the instrument from the process, allowing for easier maintenance and calibration without disrupting the entire system.

A 2 Valve Manifolds typically features two valves—an isolation valve and a vent valve—that allow the operator to isolate the instrument from the process line and vent any pressure safely. This design is commonly used for pressure measurement applications and is valued for its simplicity, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. The 2-valve manifold is the most basic manifold configuration, and it is often used where minimal functionality is needed, such as in situations where the process does not require equalizing or differential pressure measurement.
