The new Hygienic Breakaway Check Valve from Maryland-based Dixon Valve and Coupling Company presents a solution to prevent any loss of product should a tanker drive off whilst still attached.
It incorporates both the Dixon Hygienic Breakaway Coupling and Hygienic Check Valve. It acts as a single unit that has a diverted breaking point which will break at a determined break-load. The check valve will simultaneously close, protecting the loading bay pipe system and eliminating product spillage.
Dixon offers connections for hygienic processes; from stainless steel hygienic fittings and adapters to food/beverage standard hose assemblies and actuated valves for the food, dairy, beverage and brewery industries.
