An automatic shutoff valve for breakaway wet barrel fire hydrant is disclosed. In general, one aspect disclosed features an apparatus comprising: a valve housing comprising a valve body, a flange, and a valve seat; a valve pedal configured to engage the valve seat and prevent fluid flow through the valve seat in a closed position, and to permit fluid flow through the valve seat in an open position; a lockout tab disposed within the valve body, wherein the lockout tab maintains the valve pedal in the open position; a lockout bar disposed distally from the valve body; and an activation rod mechanically coupled to the lockout bar and configured to keep the valve pedal engaged with the lockout tab.

A coupling for a break-away valve assembly includes a coupling and an adapter, the coupling including: a valve arranged in an annular body, the annular body having a valve seat including a first portion and a second portion, adjacent to the first portion, of greater internal diameter relative to the first portion, the valve being biased in a first direction to seal against the valve seat on disconnection of the coupling from the adapter, wherein the valve is biased in a second direction, and the valve is adapted to extend past the first portion into the second portion of the valve seat to release a volume of fluid if the pressure acting on the valve exceeds a predetermined surge pressure threshold.

The present invention relates to a pneumatically, high pressure gas powered emergency release coupling control and monitoring system (S) comprising a powered emergency released coupling (1) arranged in a fluid-supply line (32) for conveying hazardous fluids, said powered emergency released coupling (1) comprising a couple of coupling members (10, 11) provided with mating faces (10A, 11A) for sealing engagement of the coupling members (10, 11) and formation of a pressurizable chamber (12) between said coupling members (10, 11), said system (S) comprising an actuation line (7) connected at its one end to the pressurizable chamber (12) and at its other end to a source (C) of high pressure gaseous media (GH), preferably high pressure nitrogen gas, an first actuating device (4A, 4B) arranged in the actuation line (7), wherein said system (S) provides a gaseous media at a pilot pressure level to said pressurizable chamber (12) and to said actuation line (7) in a position downstream the first actuation device (4A, 4B) or via said pressurizable chamber (12) for detection of any leakage of gas in the control and monitoring system (S), said pilot pressure gaseous media preferably being 15 low pressure nitrogen gas. The invention further relates to a pneumatically, high pressure gas powered emergency release coupling (1) and a control and monitoring method for such a system (S).

A break-away check valve is provided. The check valve may be configured between two passageways and may regulate the flow of liquid between the passageways. The check valve may include an actuation assembly that may actuate the check valve upon the system becoming dislodged or otherwise dislocated from at least one of the passageways.

A pipeline separation device for liquid-propellant rocket comprising a first flange pipeline, a second flange pipeline, a clamping unit, a push-and-pull unit and an actuation unit. The first flange pipeline and the second flange pipeline dock along a first direction, a docking end surface docking with each other is limited by the clamping unit, and end surfaces opposite to each other after docking of the first flange pipeline and the second flange pipeline are respectively used for connecting with different medium pipelines; the actuation unit is used for pushing the push-and-pull unit so that the clamping unit relieves limit on the docking end surface. Being provided with a clamping unit and an actuation unit, the pipeline separation device for liquid-propellant rocket is capable of quickly pushing the clamping unit out when the actuation unit works, thereby relieving the limit on the first flange pipeline and the second flange pipeline.

A breakaway coupling system for an offloading string comprises a first coupling part 101 and a second coupling part 102. The coupling parts are connectable together to form a conduit through which fluid can flow and separable from each other to seal the conduit. The system further comprises movement sensing means 160, 162, 166, 168 arranged to sense movement of the two coupling parts relative to each other and transmission means arranged to transmit a separation signal in response to sensing of the relative movement.

Safety conduit system includes a pair of couplings, each including an elongate fitting or housing having barbs at one end and spaced apart teeth at an opposite end. A conduit made of a thermoplastic hose, and stainless steel reinforcement around the hose is attached at each end to the barbed end of a respective coupling. A thread is optionally provided on an outer surface of the housing inward of the barbs so that ferrules on the conduit and having inner threads can threadingly engage with the threads on the couplings and enable the safety conduit system to maintain connection between the conduit and couplings at relatively high fluid flow pressure through the safety conduit system, such as around 40,000 psi.
