Internal Emergency Valves
Internal Valves – also known as emergency valves, shear
valves, foot valves – have been designed to minimize the risk in underride
collisions. Civacon Internal Valves are engineered with a shear groove that
allows the piping to break away cleanly in the event of collision. The valve
seat and poppet, however, remain intact so only the liquid in the piping
is susceptible to loss.
