2 GENERAL SAFETY RULES Before you install any MannTek equipment it is essential to check that the material and performance specifications are acceptable for your specific application. The pressure ratings and primary materials of the construction are clearly indicated on the identification plate of each MannTek product. A drawing showing the materials of construction relating to each individual component is available upon request. The technical department at MannTeknik AB is always happy to provide guidance on material suitability. Our data is taken from published chemical resistance information as well as our own application experiences. Specification checks should always be carried out before the product is supplied, but if unsure, ask! Especially if you are using the products outside the specified temperature range, ask for confirmation regarding your application.

Do not assume that a MannTek product supplied for one specific application automatically will be suitable for other similar applications. Many variables affect the performance of materials. If you wish to use a MannTek product for a different application than the one originally specified, check with MannTeknik AB to ensure compatibility before installation. Please remember, the application details should include all media transferred through the coupling. Not just the

primary transferred media. As with all equipment, a check should be made to ensure that the installation fulfils the requirements of applicable prevailing industry, local, national and international standards. Particular attention should be paid to pressure ratings, safety factors and the position of upstream and downstream affiliated closures.

2.1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Proper seal and wetted metal parts material selection is critical for safe operation. To assure maximum life for the service intended, use only those materials, sealing and lubricant compatible with the fluids being handled. Please note material being supplied and make certain that it is suited for the intended service. This is important in the food processing industry.

The Safety Break-Away Coupling assembly does not eliminate possible exposure to hazardous substances. In case of an emergency release some product between both pistons will spill out. The conditions of handling and use are beyond our control, and we make no guarantee, and assume not liability for damages or injuries related to the use of this coupling assembly. It is the responsibility of the user to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and

regulations.

Do not handle O-ring seals if their material appears charred, gummy or sticky. Use tweezers, wear gloves and protective goggles in appropriate material, consult the material safety data sheet (MSDS) of your product. Do not touch adjacent parts with unprotected hands. Piping systems must always be depressurised and drained before attempting disassembly and removal of any MannTek product. Authorized and qualified personnel must carry out all assembly and maintenance operations. The installation must be equipped with suitable controls that prevent an increase of pressure beyond the maximum allowed limit (this is the responsibility of the installer/user).

Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, property damage, leakage or unexpected separation. For a safe operation, read also the installation and operating instructions in this manual (see chapter 4 and 5) and ask for our service instructions.

4 INSTALLATION

4.1 INITIAL OPERATION The correct installation of all MannTek products is essential to ensure safe and satisfactory operation. Checks should be made to ensure that the fitting of MannTek products does not interfere with the correct operation of affiliated equipment (i.e. isolation valve, excess flow valves, etc). Before securing the flange or thread connection to mating equipment (i.e. hose, loading arm and storage tank), ensure that no foreign objects, dirt, grit, etc. are present in the coupling. All flange and thread connections should be made without imparting excessive strain to the equipment and pressure checked according to our recommendations in chapter 6.4 table 8 prior to use. All gaskets and sealing materials used to make the permanent connection should be of suitable material and able to operate at least up to the maximum parameters of the MannTek equipment. Each MannTek product is designed to take reasonable external loads associated with good handling practice but is not designed to accept continuous excessive load values associated with maladjustment or poor installation. Continuous excessive strain will equate to increased component wear and possibly premature failure if not corrected. When MannTek equipment is used with hoses, attention should be paid to hose length to ensure correct handling characteristics. Hoses should be of sufficient length to ensure operation well within the stipulated hose minimum bend radius up to the maximum operation envelope. If the flow velocity exceeds 5.25 m/s additional measures are necessary due to static electricity. This could be hoses with increased conductivity, charge inhibiting additives, earth bonding. In case of emergency release liquid will spill out between both halves, depending on pressure and size. The maximum spill is mentioned in chapter 1.5 table 6. The operator has to take care to protect the staff against spillage and provide a drain tray if necessary. Once all the above elements are satisfactory, an installation check should be carried out to prove the system.

4.2 INSTALLATION When installing MannTek equipment to new pipe work, tanks, etc. ensure the system is free from debris that may be transferred through the coupling. Where the hose or loading arm assembly is the primary static dissipation or earth route, the electrical continuity value of the assembly shall be checked to ensure regulatory compliance. Special attention should be paid to the balancing of loading arms. The weight of the coupling plus transfer media should be taken into account at the specification stage. It is usual for loading arm balance settings to account of weight variations due to differences in the full/empty cycle.

The MannTek product can be installed directly in the product line and is ready for use after removing the transport protection. The installation is as follows:

a. Remove the packaging and the tread/flange protection b. Check the coupling for damages before mounting. c. To prevent damages during mounting a suitable wrench should be used for the intended bolts

and nuts.

Use always a fitting wrench to mount the coupling to a hose, a pipe or a tank. Tighten the fitting using the wrench on the respective side where the connection is made.

Torque forces should never be transferred via the SBCoupling.

d. Ensure that the product line is empty and all valves are closed before you connect the coupling

into the line.

NPT Thread Sealing Sealing NPT threads can be an exasperating experience if certain techniques are not followed. The following tips will help alleviate many common problems in thread sealing:

g. Always use some type of sealant (tape or paste) and apply sealant to male thread only. If using a hydraulic sealant, allow sufficient curing time before system is pressurized.

h. When using tape sealant, wrap the threads in a clockwise motion starting at the first thread and, as layers are applied, work towards the imperfect (vanishing) thread. If the system that the connection being made to cannot tolerate foreign matter (i.e. air systems), leave the first thread exposed and apply the tape sealant as outlined above.

i. When using paste sealant, apply to threads with a brush, using the brush to work the sealant into the threads. Apply enough sealant to fill in all the threads all the way around.

j. When connecting one stainless steel part to another stainless-steel part that will require future disassembly, use a thread sealant that is designed for stainless steel. This stainless-steel thread sealant is also useful when connection aluminium to aluminium that needs to be disconnected in the future. These two materials gall easily, and if the correct sealant is not used, it can be next to impossible to disassemble.

k. When connecting parts made of dissimilar metals (i.e. steel and aluminium), standard tape or paste sealant performs satisfactorily.

l. For sizes 2” and below, tape or paste performs satisfactory. When using thread tape, four wraps (covering all necessary threads) are usually sufficient.

m. For sizes 2 1/2” and above, thread paste is recommended. If thread tape is used, eight wraps (covering all necessary threads) are usually sufficient. Apply more wraps if necessary.

n. Over-tightening threads can be just as detrimental as insufficient tightening. For sizes 2” and below, hand tighten the components and, with a wrench, tighten 3 full turns. For sizes 2 1/2” and above, hand tighten the components and, with a wrench, tighten 2 full turns.

o. For stubborn to seal threads, apply a normal coating of thread paste followed by a normal layer of thread tape.

p. For extremely stubborn to seal threads, apply a normal coating of thread paste followed by a single layer of gauze bandage followed by a single layer of gauze bandage followed by a normal layer of thread tape. When this procedure is done, the connection becomes permanent. Extreme measures will be necessary to disconnect these components. All other measures to deal the threads should be explored prior to use of this technique.

The start-up may take place only when the MannTek product has been mounted as instructed and the necessary function tests and leak tests have been conducted by the approved authorities (see chapter 7).

5 OPERATION

5.1 GENERAL NOTES Operators are obliged to provide qualified and trained personnel familiar with the handling of supply pipes, safety couplings, any fluid being pumped as well as its danger potential. Such staff must also be familiar with the applicable safety regulations and the regulations of the employer’s liability association. The pull cable must be shorter than the supply line and must always be tight and attached in such a way that the safety breakaway coupling can be safely triggered.

5.2 DAILY VISUAL INSPECTION All couplings should be briefly inspected at the start of each day’s operation. Check for dirt, seal damage and any obvious physical damage (such as impacts, etc.).

5.3 CLEANING Check the seal of the connections before every cleaning. In case the coupling is used for materials that harden, stick, etc., the coupling has to be cleaned of residues after every use. Before dismantling, the coupling always has to be cleaned with a suitable cleaning agent (regardless of the product carried).

5.4 DISASSEMBLY When the coupling should go into service there is a danger that the fluid will spurt out. Special protective measures such as personal protection equipment must therefore be adopted. Always ensure the system is cleaned in the proper manner. After cleaning, remove any residue from the cleaning agent. How to disassemble:

a. Wear suitable personal safety equipment.

b. Make sure that the coupling is depressurized and empty.

c. Clean coupling before disassembly (use cleaning agent suitable for the pumped fluid).

d. Unscrew coupling always with a fitting wrench.

5.5 IMPROPER USE The equipment should never be used in the case of visible damage or where there is prior knowledge of damage that may lead to malfunction.

5.6 MAINTENANCE / REPAIR Maintenance should be done regularly; at least once in the year. Maintenance and repair of the equipment may be carried out only by MannTeknik AB or by companies / technicians authorized by MannTeknik AB (see chapter 6).

5.7 MISCELLANEOUS The operator is solely responsible for the installation, operation, and maintenance of the coupling. Mann Teknik AB accepts no responsibility for damages due to faulty installation, faulty handling, as well as negligent or incorrect maintenance.

6 MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR

6.1 GENERAL INFORMATION The SBCoupling consists of two housing halves with a check valve in each. The housings are held together by two pressure clamps and a support ring during normal operation. The two check valves support each other during normal operation and keep the conduit open. Positioning body halves

1 Release cable 2 Outer support ring 3 Pressure clamp 4 Coupling flange 5 Outer O-ring 6 Spring-activated piston 7 Piston O-ring 8 Body; coupling halves 9 Connection flange

In case the tank wagon rolls away or someone forgot to disconnect the supply line before the truck drives off, the SBC is activated as follows: Before the supply line is stressed by undue external forces the support ring is pulled out by a pull cable running parallel to the supply line which releases the pressure clamps. The coupling halves are separated from each other and the spring-loaded check valves instantaneously close both ends of the line. One half of the coupling remains firmly connected to the tank wagon while the other half of the coupling re- mains connected to the supply line. This prevents the outflow of liquids or gases from both product carrying ends of the line.

Maintenance tasks, to put the released coupling back into service, may be performed only by trained personnel from an authorised professional workshop. All measures necessary for inspection, maintenance and repair must be carried out in accordance with the national regulations of the country where the system is installed.

6.4 ASSEMBLY Visual inspection When the coupling should go into service there is a danger that the fluid will spurt out. Special protective measures such as personal protection equipment must therefore be adopted. Always ensure the system is cleaned in the proper manner. After cleaning, remove any residue from the cleaning agent. Check for dirt, seal damage and any obvious physical damage (such as impacts, etc.). If you have a “non closure” coupling continue to no. 10

Disassemble Unscrew the three screws that lock the spindle steering. If BSP threaded connection- Re- move the flat seal before.

Release piston The piston is sticking out on the other side, therefore place the coupling half on distances for easier maintenance. Release the piston guide with MannTek special made tool, makes work easier and will increase safety. Piston guide is spring loaded. Risk of injury.
