Powell Valve Closure Systems for plug-type
angle valves or ball-type angle valves
Valve Closure Systems from Powell Fabrication & Manufacturing, Inc. represent today’s best available
technology to prevent catastrophic releases from small, pressurized containers.
Powell Valve Closure Systems can be configured to automatically close the valve within seconds of the
detection of a leak, security breach, fire alarm, seismic event, or other circumstance. Alternatively, the
systems can be activated manually from the main control panel or from remote-mounted emergency stop
panels located inside or outside the room.
The UniPro™ Pneumatic Actuator is manufactured using the finest stainless and carbon steels as well as
aircraft quality aluminum. It is the responsibility of the owner/operator to understand what effect the fluids,
that they service, may have on these materials. Damage due to corrosion or oxidation initiated by these fluids
is not covered by the warranty.
UniPro™ Pneumatic Valve Closure System
The UniPro™ Valve Closure System is the only system on
the market with the flexibility to accommodate dome sizes
ranging from 20-ton bullet tanks to 90-ton railcars, along with
the versatility to close virtually any plug-type or ball-type angle
valve. It is designed to stand alone as a complete system or
to integrate or interface with unloading system components
that may already be in place at the site. The basic system
incorporates several components, each of which has been
engineered, designed, and pre-assembled by Powell to ensure
proper system performance and reduced installation time, labor
and material cost.
