Industrial Breakaway Couplings
Industrial Breakaway Couplings
Industrial Breakaway Couplings are typically installed onto Loading arms and hose assemblies where at least one side is attached to a fixed point. Industrial Breakaway couplings are used to prevent pull away accidents, protect terminal and loading/unloading equipment and eliminate unwanted product release.
The breakaway couplings has a diverted breaking point which will break at a determined break-load whereupon the internal valves will automatically close the valves on both sides hence the flow ceases. This will minimise down time, save money, equipment, and the environment.
The main feature is that it operates independently via a shut off safety systems and furthermore it does not require any external power sources. These are also easy to reset on site by one person with minimal tools and training. In addition to the above they have a very high flow rate / low pressure drop.
