In the case of using such a double shutoff valve, the opening / closing control is simply controlled simultaneously by the same contact of the switch. Therefore, even if one shut-off valve has a failure such as a leak, as long as one shut-off valve is normal, fuel leakage does not occur in appearance. However, when the remaining shut-off valves are defective, the malfunction of both shut-off valves is known.
That is, the life is doubled by the double cutoff valve, and if both fail, the fuel cannot be cut off.

Although (2b) is in an open state, the pipe (1) as a whole is in a state in which the circulation of the fluid is shut off by the shutoff valve (2a) on the upstream side. In this state, the presence or absence of fluid flow is monitored by the detection means (4), and if fluid flow is detected in this state, it is determined that the upstream shutoff valve (2a) has a failure. .

The switching operation of (3b) is performed, and at this time also, in the same manner as above, the presence / absence of fluid flow is monitored by the detection means (4). Before and after switching the shutoff valve (2b) located on the downstream side to the closed state, if the leakage due to the shutoff valve (2a) on the upstream side is continuously detected, shut down the shutoff valve on the downstream side. Valve (2
If it is determined that there is a leak due to a failure in b) as well, and conversely the leak due to the upstream shutoff valve (2a) is no longer detected, this downstream shutoff valve (2b) Determines that it is normal. It should be noted that both the shutoff valves (2a) and (2b) are judged to be normal when the above-mentioned leakage is not detected before and after the shutoff valve (2b) located on the downstream side is switched to the closed state.

First, the shutoff valve (2a) on the upstream side is closed by delaying for a predetermined time, and the same leak monitoring as described above is performed. In this case, first, it is judged whether or not there is a failure in the shutoff valve (2b) on the downstream side of the pipe (1), and the shutoff valve on the downstream side by the control means (3) is judged.
After the closing operation of (2b), the shutoff valve (2a) located on the upstream side is switched to the closed state with a delay of a predetermined time Δt. Then, before and after switching operation of the shutoff valve (2a) located on the upstream side to the closed state, if the detection of the leakage due to the shutoff valve (2b) on the downstream side continues, the upstream side It was judged that there was a leak in the shutoff valve (2a) of the
On the contrary, when the leakage due to the downstream shutoff valve (2b) is no longer detected, the upstream shutoff valve (2a) is determined to be normal. The shutoff valve (2a) located on the upstream side
Before and after the switching operation to the closed state, if both of the shutoff valves (2a) and (2b) are normal, it is judged that the leakage is normal.
