Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valve technology, and in particular to a double-isolation bellows valve. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of bulk gas supply, special gases such as oxygen and hydrogen are dangerous. For example, oxygen is flammable and hydrogen is flammable and explosive. Therefore, when carrying out downstream modifications to their pipelines, extra caution is required, and special safety measures must be taken to avoid dangerous accidents.

[0003] In existing technologies, when downstream hot work operations such as welding are required (e.g., modifications to pipelines or equipment connections), an isolation medium must be installed between the welding pipelines to ensure safety. Specifically, two valves are installed at intervals along the pipeline, and an inert gas is used to purge the space between them. The purpose of this inert gas purging is to remove hazardous gases such as oxygen and hydrogen from the space between the valves and replace them with stable gases (like argon and nitrogen, which are less prone to chemical reactions), creating a relatively safe environment and preventing combustion or explosions during subsequent welding. However, using two valves not only occupies a large space but also requires separate operation of each valve, posing a risk of misoperation. Furthermore, the purging section between the two valves results in a long time required to reconnect high-purity gas and a large consumption of purging gas. Utility Model Content
