Excelerator Railcar Emergency Shutoff Valves (ESV’s) are designed to provide rapid and positive shutdown of gas lines should a downstream rupture or piping break occur during product transfer. Featuring a built-in fusible element at the valve operating hub to ensure the ESV will automatically close when exposed to heat between 212° F. - 250° F. In addition to the fusible element, the Excelerator Railcar ESV’s are equipped with a poppet design like the MEC internal safety valves that provides an integral excess flow feature. MEC offers a variety of closing flow values ranging from very high liquid flow rates to more moderate vapor flow rates depending on the application. MEC Excelerator Railcar ESV’s are equipped standard with quick disconnect internal pneumatic operators for rapid and reliable open/close of the poppet allowing for convenient on site or remote shutdown of the valve.
