Description

Valcor’s Quick Disconnect couplings are designed for demanding aerospace applications where the ability to quickly disconnect and reconnect system control lines is critical. They are well-suited for the extreme vibration, temperature, and high pressure requirements found in the most severe launch vehicle and spacecraft operating conditions. The couplings are designed to minimize in-service flow restrictions and liquid loss during the decoupling process. Once decoupled, the dual shutoff couplings seal off both lines to prevent system depressurization and loss of media. Valcor QDs are engineered to order based on customer specifications.

Application

The QDs are typically used on lines for fuel, hydraulic fluid, rocket propellant and pressurization gases and liquids, that require the temporary separation of process lines.
