TODO Safety
Break-Away Couplings
Eliminate spillage
The TODO Safety Break Away couplings are
designed to eliminate spillage and damage
associated with drive / pull away incidents.
The consequences of such incidents can be
very serious without breakaway protection
and occur more frequently than you would
think. The TODO Safety Break Away coupling
system removes the human error element in
this area of product transfer.
The TODO Safety Break Away coupling uses a double valve arrangement that ensures closure
of both halves before the main seal release to atmosphere. The coupling react if the hose or
the loading arm have an excessive load and closes both valves automatically and then permits
disconnection.
Installation
The valve is designed to be the weakest link for pulling forces and it is recommeded that it is
installed so that the pulling force is perpendicular (90) to the coupling. See two exampels below.
Features
Exceptionally high flow rate / low pressure drop.
Extremely quick closing time, with minimum loss of media.
Simple and safe design, with reduced numbers of components.
Easy to handle. No need to remove the coupling from the hose / loading arm for resetting,
maintenance or repair of the unit.
Cover a wide range of applications.

Flow capacity
TODO Safety Break Away couplings offer exceptionally high flow capacity for their size.

step up at least one size to
achieve comparable flow
