The Safety breakaway couplings consists of two halves, each with a poppet that has a flat type-sealing surface similar to a dry disconnect coupling. The coupling remains constantly open under normal use. The two halves of the breakaway coupling only close when there is excessive force, such as in a truck or railcar drive away situation. When the couplings separate, this allows the poppets to close. Product loss is minimized because the two poppets close rapidly, minimizing exposure to personnel and the environment.
