Our Quick Release System consists of two standard ball valves and the release coupling, which is clamped together by a collar assembly. With the use of a lever, first the ball valves are closed and then the collar release is activated. Due to the high operating force a hydraulic cylinder is required for the activation.
The system is controlled hydraulically according to the circuit diagram shown, i.e. with a hydraulic limit switch in the slew range between the F- and A-length of the arm.
The release will be initiated either by the product arm or the vapor arm, depending on which of them is outside of its safe working envelope first.
The hydraulic accumulator and the control system are located in a control cabinet with a conductive surface.
