Stop Dangerous Leaks of Extremely Hazardous Gases Where They Occur
Avoid production slowdowns, operator injury, or lengthy and expensive environmental cleanups by stopping dangerous chemical leaks with the UniPro™ QT Pneumatic Valve Closure System. The only quarter-turn emergency valve closure technology designed for 20-ton bullet tanks to 90-ton railcars, this patent-pending system prevents reportable releases of pressurized hazardous gases at the source. Plus, the UniPro QT system is uniquely designed for "quarter-turn" ball-type valves. Improve your Risk Management Planning (RMP) scenarios with a pneumatic-powered system that not only promises easy installation and low maintenance, but also superior performance and reliability.
Some valve closure systems are simply built.
Ours is engineered.
FOR BALL-TYPE VALVES
Designed to close a variety of ball-type angle valves on railcars and tank trucks with dome sizes 28 inches in diameter and larger. Operates valves with handles that close either toward the center of the dome or toward the dome wall. Several valve handle adapters are available for use with common ball-type valves.
PNEUMATIC
Ideal for applications where air or nitrogen are readily available. Requires 90 psig to operate. Fail-closed design operates even if AC power or air pressure is lost.
VERSATILE
For use on containers of hydrogen chloride, vinyl chloride, monomer methyl mercaptan and other pressurized hazardous gases.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Robust motor requires no lubrication, and is completely encased by an aluminum cover for protection and years of reliable service.
Patent Pending
POWERFUL
Automatically responds to any alarm input, closing valves with 50 lb-ft of torque in less than 3 seconds.
EASY TO INSTALL
Easily mounts to the valve handle without tools. No clamps, brackets, or lug nuts required for mounting.
LIGHTWEIGHT & COMPACT
Just 3.5 pounds and requires only 1 3/8-inch clearance (the thickness of an operator's hand) between valve handle and nearest obstruction for operation.
The UniProTM QT Pneumatic Valve Closure System has been engineered, designed, and field-tested to ensure reliable performance while reducing installation time, maintenance, and material cost.
That’s Reliable Engineering.
The UniPro™ QT Pneumatic Valve Closure System is engineered to be the most versatile, efficient, and reliable unit on the market. The system includes the actuator, control panel, air control unit, and air supply hose.
The UniPro QT is designed to stand alone as a complete system or to integrate and interface with existing unloading components. The included air supply hose has a safety swing coupling to ensure a secure connection between actuator and gas supply.
Designed for Durability
The actuator is constructed of aircraft-quality aluminum and high-grade carbon and stainless steels for maximum service life. The housing is sealed to prevent intrusion from dirt and water in outdoor applications, while a two-step polyurethane coating provides corrosion protection.
Maximum Control
The UniPro™ Control Panel automatically activates the actuator to close the valve in the event of a gas leak, car movement, fire alarm, seismic event, security breach, process shutdown, or other monitored condition. You can also manually activate the system by depressing the emergency stop button on the panel.
Air Control Unit
The air control unit supplies the proper amount of clean pressurized air to the system. Available in two sizes to operate up to 12 UniPro™ QT actuators simultaneously.
Versatility
The UniPro™ name represents a whole family of pneumatic actuators for railcar and tanker applications, including the standard, reversible and low-torque models, all designed for plug-type valves, plus a quarter-turn model specifically designed for ball-type valves. The control panel, air control unit, and all optional system components work with any of our pneumatic actuators.
