One of the valves on my 3 bar line just failed. Without it, our production has ground to a stop and we can't operate until we get a replacement (which we have already ordered). In order to make a deadline, I am trying to find a way to use a (properly rated for pressure) DN 16 flanged valve to fit with the existing DN 10 piping.

Is there any way to (safely) connect these two flanges together temporarily?

If you have access to a lathe you should be able to quickly machine a flanged reducer out of Nylon 6. Not sure what temperature you're operating at but make it a bit thick and it will easily be able to handle 3 bar.
