Epsilons: The Superior Choice and Why |
Epsilons: The Superior Choice and Why
OPW’s Epsilon Couplers are the epitome of innovation and reliability in the fluid transfer technology sector. These couplers are celebrated for their robust construction, unparalleled safety features, and extraordinary leak-tight performance, making them the superior choice in the market.
One of the key unique selling points of Epsilon Couplers is their interlocked dual ball valve full bore design, which allows for maximum flow rate, enhancing productivity. They also feature minimal dead space, ensuring no spillage upon disconnection, a critical feature for maintaining cleanliness and safety in your operations.
These compact and lightweight couplers are the number one product for highly toxic and dangerous applications. This is due to their design, which includes interlocked handles that prevent opening when the couplers are already open, thereby reducing the risk of accidental spillage or exposure to harmful substances.
For additional safety, Epsilon Couplers can be keyed, providing an extra layer of security and preventing unauthorised access or use. They are designed to withstand extremely high pressures of up to 435 psi (30 Bar) and temperatures up to 450°F (230°C), making them suitable for the most demanding industrial applications.
Every Epsilon Coupler comes with a unique serial number, ensuring traceability. This feature is particularly useful for quality control and maintenance purposes, as it allows for easy identification and tracking of each unit.
