The TODO NGX Marine BREAK-AWAY Coupling has been designed to eliminate spillage and damage associated with ship and/or barge movement when loading and unloading hazardous liquids.It also features the market leading flow rate versus pressure drop relationship.
The Marine version of TODO's tried and tested NGX BREAK-AWAY Coupling has been engineered to withstand harsh marine conditions, and as such will only break and separate under a straight-pull force. Forces perpendicular to the line of flow will not affect the NGX Marine BREAK-AWAY.
The coupler automatically senses an excessive straight-pull load, closes the valves and then allows disconnection.
Benefits:
High flow rate / low pressure drop
Designed to resist axial force so that disconnect only occurs when subjected to straight pull forces
Operates independently of shut off safety systems and does not require an external power source
Easy to re-set on site with
