Emco Wheaton’s TODO break-away coupling with a 4 in. TTMA flange will disconnect and minimize product loss to virtually zero if a drive-away occurs. The API coupler and the loading arm will not be damaged, and the break-away has the capability of being reset on site. No need to buy a new piece of equipment or send the break-away to the manufacturer to be reset.
The TTMA break-away consists of two identical halves joined toegether by a series of 3mm break-pins. The break-away can be configured to seperate at a set load. When an excessive load is placed on the loading arm, the break-pins brak and the valve closes automatically. The break-away can be reset onsite using a reset kit.
