What is a spectacle blind flange?
"A spectacle blind - also known as a figure-8 blind - is generally a piece of metal that is cut to fit between two pipe flanges and usually sandwiched between two gaskets. A spectacle blind is often made from two metal discs that are attached to each other by a small section of steel. The shape is similar to a pair of glasses or "spectacles" - hence the name spectacle blind. One end of the blind will have an opening to allow flow through the pipe during operation and the other end is solid to block flow during maintenance. They are generally installed as a permanent device to separate process piping systems."[1]The whole idea of a spectacle blind is so that one can be absolutely sure that an item of equipment is properly and securely blanked off with no possibility of any flow or leakage through a valve during maintenance. The flow can be diverted to other items of equipment but not just bypassed around the blank as this would compromise the safety function of the spectacle blind. The flow has to valved off and pressure relieved prior to loosening flange bolts and swinging the blind.References1.

What is the difference between ASME B16.48 spectacle blind and API 590 spectacle blind?
ASME B16.48 spectacle blinds are designed for use in piping systems to provide a means of isolating sections, featuring a solid plate with a cutout for flow when needed. In contrast, API 590 spectacle blinds are more focused on the oil and gas industry, with specific dimensions and performance requirements tailored for higher pressure and temperature applications. While both serve similar isolation purposes, the standards differ in their design, material specifications, and intended use cases.
