Rotary dry break manifold

This manifold unit has been applied for 25 years now. It can concentrate or distribute a maximum of 18 lines to two lines. This manifold guarantees leakage-free connections during and after coupling, regardless of pressure and flow direction. After loosening a connection there is no more contact between the product areas, a complete product separation is given. Moreover, on opening or disconnecting of the lines there is no formation of bubbles. This is a big advantage for the operation of mass meters. As an option the manifold can also open against locked-in pressure (up to nominal pressure).
  • Complete separation of different product lines
  • Possibility of coupling and decoupling under high pressure and independent of flow direction
  • Minimal flow resistance thanks to favourable shape and maximum utilisation of cross section
  • Automatic or manual operation
  • Almost zero product loss during decoupling. Therefore this manifold is a very safe and environment-friendly multi line coupling.
  • The pipeline connection closes automatically on loss of control air
  • No need for additional isolation valves in manifold valve's area
The full system rotary manifolds are based on one or two U-arms which turn centrally above each other. These U-arms are connected to pipelines with are arranged radially. The disconnecting points of the single pipeline systems are equipped with dry-break couplings. These facilitate a safe product separation and there are almost no residuals.

The manifold can be equipped with following option:

  • Without any problems the coupling can be opened and closed against the locked-in product pressure, which results from pressure surge, thermal expansion etc. in the full system.
  • Pressure compensation mechanism for some pumps
 
This is a manual full system rotary manifold 1 to 14 with U-arm. Opening, closing as well as interlocking are effected pneumatically. Here: Size DN 80
A fully automated rotary manifold 1 to 10 in size DN 25 with S-arm. Here: Mounting position overhead
The connection of male and female coupling of the fully automated rotary manifold (see above) is done via a pneumatically driven half ring.
Fully automated rotary manifold 1 to 20 in size DN 25 with S-arm. Here: Mounting position overhead
View from above – fully automated rotary manifolds 1 to 20 in size DN 25 with incoming pipe connection. The rotary actuator is installed in the centre.
