Swagelok offers a variety of 2-, 3-, and 5-valve instrument manifolds. The 2-valve
manifolds are designed for static pressure and liquid level applications; the 3- and 5valve manifolds are designed for differential pressure applications.
The V, VB, and VL series manifolds feature a horizontal body design; the VC and
VCB series manifolds feature a compact, vertical body design. Choice of manifold
connections include 1/2 in. and 12 mm female Swagelok tube fitting, 1/2 in. female
pipe (NPT and ISO 228/1), and flange (DIN EN 61518 and MSS SP-99).

Packing adjustments may be required during the service life of the valve.
Valves that have not been cycled for a period of time may have
a higher initial actuation torque.
Valve Features
The flow through a Swagelok manifold is controlled by a series
of stainless steel needle valves. Each valve has a specific
functionto block pressure, to bleed off pressure, or to
equalize pressuredepending on its location on the manifold.
On both designs, the stem packing is externally adjustable in

the open or closed position. PTFE is the standard packing
material; optional Grafoil packing is available for hightemperature applications.
The control of all these functions is shared by two needle

valve designsa large-bonnet needle valve for manifold
orifices of 0.156 in. (4 mm) and a small-bonnet needle valve
for manifold orifices of 0.125 in. (3.2 mm).

Testing
Every Swagelok instrument manifold is factory tested with
nitrogen at 1000 psig (69 bar). Seats have a maximum
allowable leak rate of 0.1 std cm3/min.
Shell testing is performed with a liquid leak detector to a
requirement of no detectable leakage.
Cleaning and Packaging

Every Swagelok instrument manifold is cleaned and packaged
in accordance with Swagelok Specification SC-10.
