Double trim valve contain balanced trim at high temperatures.This valve permits minimum actuator size when required tight shut-off.

The indication "double trim" is a bit misleading since there is only one plug with two control ports.

Reason for it is to balance the force executed by the process pressure altough in practice not fully since the size of both ports differs because of practical reason as to be able to remove the plug for maintenance. Hope this clarifies.
