Active Safeguard Lever for TW Quick Couplings

Since decades, tank truck couplings according to DIN 28450 standard
(EN 14420-6) are in wide use for the transfer of dangerous goods.

Male and female coupler are interlocked after the lever is put down.

If the lever is lifted accidentally, the coupling lock is not in function anymore. To avoid the possibility of a loosening of the coupling due to pulsation or vibration of the refuelling system, ELAFLEX developed the "Active Safeguard Lever". After putting the lever down, it is automatically fixed.

An inadvertent lifting of the lever during operation is positively avoided. To open the coupling a slider has to be pushed (one-handed action).

The patented system (Patent-No. DE 102006022662) is available since February 2007 in sizes 3" and 4". The couplings are fully compatible to other fittings according to DIN 28450 (EN 14420-6) standard.
