Abstract: The valve for use in cleaning pipeline systems includes an access port in the body; access port having an opening and configured to receive a cleaning element; a latching mechanism; the latching mechanism being coupled to the access port and having an open configuration and a closed configuration; a locking pin; the locking pin coupled to the latching mechanism and configured to keep the latching mechanism in the closed configuration; an integrated pressure-alert valve; the integrated pressure-alert valve configured to keep the latching mechanism in a temporarily locked condition. Valve is useful for wherein the open configuration allows access to the access port opening when the latching mechanism is in an unlatched and opened state; wherein the closed configuration prevents access to the access port opening when the latching mechanism is in a latched and closed state; and wherein the valve is configured to be used in cleaning pipeline systems.
