TODO Breakaway Couplings

download product informationTODO® Safety Break Away couplings are designed to eliminate spillage and damage associated with driveaway or pull-away incidents.

The consequences of such incidents can be very serious without breakaway protection and occur more frequently than you would think, with the effectiveness of alternative protection systems often compromised by human error.

Measures such as brake interlocks, barriers and even removing the keys from a tanker driver can all be defeated, either intentionally or otherwise. The TODO® Safety Break Away coupling system removes the element of human error in this area of product transfer.

The TODO® Safety Break Away coupling uses a double valve arrangement that ensures closure of both halves before the main seal releases to atmosphere. The coupling halves seal automatically as soon as a movement greater than 1.5mm is detected between the halves. This important feature removes the possibility of incomplete closure in partial break away or excessive strain conditions. They provide exceptionally high flow rate / low pressure drop.
