Epdm, Ffkm, Fkm, Nbr

Available in Breaking Pin and Cable Release models, these couplings accommodate a wide range of pipeline sizes and flow rates. The Breaking Pin version disengages at a predetermined force, while the Cable Release uses a tensioned cable for controlled separation. Both designs protect personnel, minimise downtime, and ensure environmental safety during biodiesel transfer operations.

Description

Biodiesel Breakaway Couplings are critical safety devices designed to protect both personnel and equipment during biodiesel transfer operations. They automatically disconnect when a predetermined force or tension is applied, preventing spills, environmental hazards, and potential damage to your system. This breakaway functionality is especially important in situations where accidental pull-away or excessive force could otherwise cause system failure.

Available in a range of sizes, these couplings can accommodate different pipeline diameters and flow rates, making them suitable for everything from small-scale installations to large industrial setups.

There are two main variations:

Breaking Pin Model: Features shear pins that break under a specific force, allowing the coupling to safely disengage. This version is ideal for static installations where separation forces are consistent and predictable.
Cable Release Model: Utilises a tensioned cable that triggers release, making it suitable for dynamic environments where force may vary in direction or magnitude.

Both models of the Biodiesel Breakaway Couplings ensure reliable operation, minimising downtime while maximising safety and environmental protection during biodiesel handling.
