KLAW Marine Breakaway Couplings protect assets, personnel, reputation and also the environment during offshore transfer operations
Marine Breakaway Couplings minimises risks in offshore transfer
The KLAW Marine Breakaway Coupling gives an identified and safe parting point inside the hose transfer system. When tensile forces exceed predetermined tolerances, the Marine Breakaway Coupling activates.
The KLAW Marine Breakaway Coupling then delivers two distinct security features. The very first is the closing from the flow from the media being transferred; second is allowing separation from the hose transfer system. Separation relieves the hose transfer system and minimises chance of damage and spillage.

Minimising risk during offshore transfer
Activation can be caused by events or situations that may prove disastrous with no proven and vital part of the transfer system. Events for example vessel movement, storms and pressure surge could compromise hose transfer systems and can damage assets, damage to personnel, contamination from the environment and extended downtime. This may bring about disruption of operation, extensive clean-up costs, litigation and damaged reputation. The KLAW Marine Breakaway Coupling thus remains an important part of maintaining a trusted offshore transfer system.

Typical events
Vessel movement and lack of Dynamic Positioning (DP).
Pressure Surge: A result of inadvertent downstream valve closure elsewhere from the system or over-pressurisation. The activation setting is pre-determined geared to the operating conditions.

Double closure on activation

Whenever a KLAW Marine Breakaway Coupling activates, the Flip-Flap Valve mechanism closes on both the upstream and downstream flow inside the hose transfer system. This minimises spill on both sides from the hose transfer separation.
Instantaneous closure
Spill on activation is minimised through the instantaneous closure from the KLAW Flip-Flap Valve mechanism.
100% shut-off of flow
The KLAW Flip-Flap Valve mechanism provides 100% closure and for that reason 100% shut-off of both upstream and downstream flow.
Minimum headloss
The KLAW Flip-Flip Valve is made to deliver minimum headloss a lot more the locked open position inside the Breakaway Coupling. This allows the coupling to produce transfer efficiencies and also minimising potential risk of spills.
Reliable performance from the marine environment
The KLAW Marine Breakaway Coupling was created specifically to face up to those bending moments and torsional forces expected from floating wave motions and also the rigours from the marine environment. The appearance of the KLAW Marine Breakaway Coupling therefore prevents premature activation from the unit and protects the Breakstuds from fatigue.
