This Can Be Prevented

Undetected low-impact

shear-groove leaks can fill sumps with fuel at an alarming rate to create a potentially dangerous situation for customers, your investments and the environment.

The highest level of protection and

peace-of-mind in the industry against:

• Low-Impact Breaks

• Dislodged Dispensers

• Dispenser Sump Fires

Protection Against Low-Impact Breaks

• Eliminates health, environmental contamination and fire hazards

• Prevents product loss • Prevents costly clean-up

The New OPW 10 Plus is the only Emergency Shut-Off Valve in the industry designed to contain a shear groove leak and close the flow of fuel in the event of an undetected low-impact break

Same Features as the 10 Series, PLUS

How It Works

1. A shear groove leak is completely contained by the patent-pending SmartGuard™ assembly

2. As the leak persists undetected, the SmartGuard™ continues to contain the fuel and expands until eventually it pushes against the valve’s linkage arm

3. The expanding SmartGuard™ presses against the linkage arm causing it to disengage with the valve body. This action instantly activates the valve poppet to close, stopping the flow of fuel
