Breakaway Couplings and systems Minimising the risk of spillage KLAW ensure the safe transfer of hazardous and non-hazardous materials such as oil, gases, liquids and powders, through the design, manufacture and supply of Breakaway Couplings (BAC), Marine Breakaway Couplings (MBC) and Emergency Release Systems (ERC). When unacceptable strain is placed on a hose system or there is a surge in flow, the breakaway coupling activates by closing and separating. This protects your assets, the workforce and the environment from spillage and limits the downtime caused by the consequences of spillage such as clean-up operations and even litigation.
