Normally closed valve P&ID symbol

Normally closed valve

ISO 10628-2 (group 21, valves) / PIP PIC001
Drawn as
Bow-tie with both triangles filled solid black.
Meaning
The valve is closed in normal operation: drains, bypasses, crossovers, spare connections. Read the body type from the legend; the fill only means closed. Set the valve normally closed in the model.
Variants
  • Some legends fill only the inner part, or write NC beside an open bow-tie
  • Filled globe, ball or plug valves keep their centre mark
  • A few old legends use filled bodies for check valves instead, so check the legend
