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, introduced Nov. 17 its new safety breakaway device, the NTS Series Breakaway Coupling.

The NTS Series Safety Breakaway Coupling is designed to protect against the unintended pull-away of tank trucks, railcars, barges and ships.

Loading arms and hose lines, conveying gas or liquid media, can be either newly equipped or retrofitted with the NTS.

Two non-return valves prevent product loss in the event of an emergency separation.

The NTS features a spare part free, non-destructive separation—no shear pins involved.

After depressurizing and emptying the hose or loading arm, the NTS can be re-assembled easily, without tools or spare parts so that the operation has very little downtime.

The NTS is available in two styles to meet specific project requirements.

A variety of line sizes, connection options and material choices are available to meet virtually any loading application.
