Have a unique application? Powell may have a customized solution.

Answer:

Any operation that services tank cars, tank trucks, railcars, or other pressurized bulk containers of hazardous chemicals with top loading/unloading angle plug or angle ball valves should consider incorporating the UniPro™ Valve Closure System into their application. The UniPro™ system is an automated emergency response system that will close the valves on these containers in the event of fluid leak, seismic activity or any other emergency situation.
