Cable release Break-away

Home > Break-away > Cable release Break-away

The safety break-away valve consists of two halves, each with a valve that has a flat type-sealing surface similar to a dry disconnect coupling.
The valve remains constantly open under normal use.
The two halves of the break-away coupling only close when there is excessive force, such as in a Road Tanker, or Rail Car drive away situation.
The release is executed by pulling out the locking bolts with the help of the cable. The locking bolts hold the two pressure clamps in position which press both casing halves of the SBCoupling together. A guiding pin set in between serves the alignment of the locking bolts.
When the SBCouplings separate, this allows the poppets to close. Product loss is minimized because of the two poppets close rapidly, minimizing exposure to personnel and the environment.
Ensure safe loading and unloading when fluids are being transferred to or from road, rail or ship tankers. The mechanically activated coupling separation which occurs when the distance between the coupling and the fixed installation exceeds the limit of the safety cable protects the hose from damage from excess stretch or strain.

Swivel Styles

For safe transfer of all your hazardous and non-hazardous products. The Break-away Cable release series, is designed specifically to minimize spillage and damage associated with drive away and pull away incidents . The Coupling automatically senses an excessive load, closes its valves and then permits disconnection.

Applications
• Chemicals
• Food industry
• Power generation
• Shipbuilding
• Loading bays
• Mobile tankers

Advantages
• Compact
• High quality and safety, with TÜV-certified materials used for construction
• Easy to maintain
• Easy to recouple after separation.

How it works

• Passive security against situations where a hose or loading arm could be subjected to inadvertent excessive loads.
• Minimal Tension forces on the cable are required to release the SBCouplings-system.

• Design features are a simple mechanism and no loose components which could be lost after release.
• Operates independently of shut off safety system and does not require an external power source.

Features
Passive security against situations where a hose or loading arm could be subjected to inadvertent excessive loads. • Design features are a simple mechanism and no loose components which could be lost after release. • Operates independently of shut off safety system and does not require an external power source. • Easy to reset on site with one person • High fl owrate / low pressure drop • Very low loss, positive shut-off of both coupling halves results in minimum product loss. • Lightweight and robust construction. • Available with ANSI/DIN fl anges or threaded (BSP or NPT).
