Breaking Bolt SeriesNo part of this leaflet may be reproduced in any form or by any means without permission in writing from the publisher.Features and ApplicationsFeatures•Passive security against situationswhere a hose or loading arm could besubjected to inadvertent excessive loads.•Design features are a simple mechanismand no loose components which could belost after release.•Operates independently of shut off safetysystem and does not require an externalpower source.•••Easy to reset on site with one personHigh flowrate / low pressure dropVery low loss, positive shut-off of bothcoupling halves results in minimumproduct loss.•Lightweight and robust design.•Available with ANSI/DIN flanges orthreaded (BSP or NPT).ApplicationsThe Safety Break-away couplings are availableas Industrial and Marine type.Industrial Break-awayTypically installed into loading arm and hoseassemblies, where at least one side of thecoupling is attached to a rig and fixed point.Liquified gasesLPG, Butane, Propane and Blends.Co2, DME, LNGChemicals and HydrocarbonsAromatics, Ethylenes and Propylenes,VCM, Alcohols and Acids, Diesel, Jet A1.Refrigerants Forane.Oil and PetrochemicalBulk Loading/Unloading, Road TankersRail Tankers, Process Product TransferTank CleaningMarine and OffshoreShip to Rig Fluid TransferShip to Shore Fluid TransferShip to Ship Fluid TransferBunkering, Marine RefuellingSpecialityHydraulic Oils, Inks, Paints, Solvents,Locomotive Fuelling, Helicopter Fuelling,Food processing industryPlant engineering and constructionPower plant construction, Food processing industryMarine Break-awayMarine Safety Break-aways are designedto only release by inline pull and used betweentwo strings of hose.Release with a tensile force being applied atan angle to the plane of the coupling housing,up to 90 degrees.Release by inline pull only.SBCouplings ®Safety Break-away Couplings
