Valve Closure Systems (Emergency Shut Off Systems)
Powell Emergency Valve Closure Systems address today's most critical site security and safety issues. Powell manufactures and markets shut off systems for railcars or bulk containers, or smaller containers such as 1-ton and 150 pound cylinders. The systems can be configured to close valves within 10 seconds or less in the event of a gas leak, car or container movement, security breach, fire alarm, seismic event, or numerous other circumstances. Valve Closure Systems from Powell are suitable for use with hazardous gases such as chlorine, ammonia, sulfur dioxide and more.

Some vacuum regulators used on ton containers can block direct access to the valve stem. In this situation, the vacuum regulator body can be moved out of the way by adding the appropriate couplings, nipples or elbows. They must be steel fittings rated at 3000 psi. Occasionally, an additional yoke may be required, depending on the make and model of the vacuum regulator in use. More...
