The T
E C Bulk Loader Coupling Valve is a major improvement on existing Fuel
Couplings, from significantly reducing the number of parts to increasing the
length of the handle.
This new design allows one coupling to be used on different
train sets.
For the operator, there is a major improvement - extended
body length. This ensures that the hands are fully away from the train body,
ending the problem of trapped fingers when refuelling.
Improved design of internal slug reduces foaming at supply, allowing
reduced fuelling time.
Increased handle length gives easier connect / disconnect
The Bulk Loader Coupling Valve outer body is manufactured from high grade stainless steel. This combined with a brass internal sleeve gives the Bulk
Loading Valve the ability to withstand the harsh treatment
encountered in its natural environment. The internal operating spring is locked
into its location point to ensure the correct operation of the piston on each
connect / disconnect. The main seals are manufactured from Viton® to ensure a
perfect, hard wearing, seal.
Extensive testing has seen a major reduction in coupling
maintenance and significant reduction in leaks.
