Emergency Release Couplers are integral components of most loading systems. Through the self monitoring system of the loader, looming emergency situations caused by a tanker drifting off are quickly detected. Consequently, the coupling will automatically be released. Therefore, SVT Emergency Release Couplers provide efficient protection of the personnel, the environment, and the terminal loading system. It is an investment in safety.

SVT Emergency Release Couplings can function at temperatures ranging from –196°C to 250°C. Different heavy-duty materials used in the couplers allow them to adjust to different kinds of substances to be transported, be it a toxic, an aggressive, or an explosive liquid or gas. With the help of lining and/or heating, SVT Emergency Release Couplers can handle the most critical substances. SVT Emergency Release Couplers are vacuum proof and also suitable for high-pressure services.

The SVT Emergency Release Coupler consists of two ball valves and a removable clamp that holds the valves tightly together. The ball valves provide the desirable full flow with minimum characteristics of pressure loss. Moreover, due to the special construction of the ball valves, the spill volume during separation can be minimized.
