The HaloValve is a Natural Gas Safety Breakaway, which can be easily integrated into existing installations, it is placed in the riser pipe between grade and the gas meter. Upon impact, the valve disconnects and gas flow is shut off, which provides instant and effective protection from the accidental rupture of gas meter lines.
Additionally, the HaloValve enables utility companies to comply with the requirements of the PIPES Act legislation of 2020 by helping eliminate the accidental emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
- The breakaway is installed into the meter set or other gas piping.
- Design withstands nominal lateral forces.
- If a significant lateral force occurs, the fitting breaks.
- The ball acts as a plug stopping the escape of gas.
- Stopping the flow of natural gas minimizes risk of fire, explosion, property damage and serious injury.
