The monoblock models have been designed to meet the requirements
of the process industry, especially for use in applications with aggressive
gaseous and highly viscous liquid media even in aggressive environ-
separate the process. Except model IBF1 all monoblock models are
equipped with a vent valve for draining or venting. The valves must only
be used in fully open or fully closed position.
Models IBF1, IBS2, BF3, IBM2, IBM3
These valves are used for the separation of measuring instruments from
the process.
Model IBJ4
The monoblock for injection processes has been designed to enter a
medium through an injection quill into a pressurised system.
Model IBS3
The monoblock for sampling processes has been designed to extract a
medium from a pressurised system.The sampling probe allows to extract
media for analysis.
Only use the product in applications that lie within its technical perfor-
mance limits (e.g. max. ambient temperature, material compatibility, ...).
Improper handling or operation of the product outside of its technical
specifications requires the instrument to be taken out of service
immediately and inspected by an authorised service engineer.

The personnel trained by the operator are understood to be personnel
who, based on their education, knowledge and experience, are capable
of carrying out the work described and independently recognising poten-
tial hazards.
Special operating conditions require further appropriate knowledge, e.g.
of aggressive media.

With the pressurisation of the product, as a result of poor
sealing, media under high pressure can escape. Due to the
high energy of the media that can escape in the event of
a failure, the possibility of physical injuries and damage to
property exists.
The sealing of the connections must be carried out expertly
and checked for leak tightness.
Defective valves must be isolated and repaired or replaced.

depressurised using the main valve.
It is suggested to clean pipeline connection before the installation of
bodies or dirt from the internal of the pipeline.
Inspect the functionality of the valve by opening and closing several
Ball valves shall be in open position during the installation to avoid
their damage.
Ensure that all process and instrument connections are free from

The correct sealing element must be used for the respective
connection.
After mounting the monoblock on the process connection, the instru-
ment must be installed.
Beware of welding operations at the pipeline. Ensure that the
temperature does not exceed 150 °C [302 °F]. Always keep
the ball valve in open position.

During operation the vent line must be closed and usually a plug screw is
installed to close the vent connection.
Please note that the handle may present a slight play and spin
freely up to a quarter turn when in the depressurised state.
This is due to the constructive design.
The valve, especially the handle, must not be subjected to any exter-
nal loading (e.g. use as a climbing aid, support for objects).
The handle may only be used by hand; the use of tools is not
accepted.
The torque on reaching the valve stop must only be hand-tight.
Ensure that all valves of the product are closed.
Before venting the product, the process line must be closed securely.
Make sure that the vent connection points away from personnel and
high pressure ejection of parts is avoided by a protective device. Then
remove plug screw, if present.To open the needle valve, turn the T-han-
dle anticlockwise as far as the stop. To close the needle valve, turn the
T-handle clockwise as far as the stop.

2. Open the main valve of the process line.
3. Make sure that the vent valve (red) remains closed.
It is recommended to purge the entire pipeline with inert gas
(e. g. nitrogen) before pressurising it with process media.

The pressure is at the instrument connection now. The valve shall be
cycled a few times to ensure equal pressurisation of the valve body
cavity.
5. After the pressurisation, set the valve in the required position.
5.3 Leak test
The monoblock has been already pneumatically and hydrostatically
tested, so it does not need to be retested on site.
It is the responsibility of the operator to make a leak test at the process
and connections (e.g. leak spray and bubble method).

faults and the necessary countermeasures.

If a return is needed, please follow the instructions given in
Upon contact with hazardous media (e.g. oxygen, acetylene,
-
sive, toxic, carcinogenic, radioactive), and also with refriger-
ation plants and compressors, there is a danger of physical
injuries and damage to property and the environment.
Should a failure occur, aggressive media with extremely high
temperature and under high pressure or vacuum may be
present at the product.
For these media, in addition to all standard regulations,
the appropriate existing codes or regulations must also be
followed.
