OPW Engineered Systems Introduces New Kamvalok Dry Disconnect Coupler

Lebanon, OH—OPW Engineered Systems, a manufacturer of systems for the safe and efficient loading and unloading of hazardous materials, and a division of OPW Fluid Transfer Group, announced Oct. 13 the release of the new and improved Kamvalok Dry Disconnect Coupler.

OPW Kamvalok Dry Disconnect Couplings are considered the standard of the industry, and the latest enhancements serve to reinforce that position.

Used at liquid transfer points where product loss could occur, the OPW Kamvalok provides a reliable solution to prevent spillage during the connection or disconnection process.

The Kamvalok Dry Disconnect Coupler is ideal in liquid transfer applications involving various chemicals such as petroleum products, solvents, paint, lacquers, inks, adhesives, fatty acids, pharmaceuticals, soaps, detergents, ag-chemicals, caustics, and many acids, to name a few.

The new Kamvalok coupler features stainless steel Autolok locking arms and a stainless steel locking handle, that secures both the opened and closed positions to prevent accidental release or uncoupling.

The Autolok locking arms provide added protection with an automatic locking mechanism signaled by a positive click; uncoupling requires only an easy tug on the lock release.

The poppeted seal cylinder design, equipped with an easily replaceable snap-on nose seal, offers dual protection and automatic closure from both the coupler and adaptor.

The OPW Kamvalok coupler is available in Aluminum and Stainless Steel, sizes 1 ½", 2" and 3", with a variety of seal options.
