HYDRAULIC AND CHEMICAL COUPLERS

Product ID: 20502-0410

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Our High Flow Couplers enable hydraulic and chemical lines to be

mated subsea, quickly and efficiently.
Optimized for high flow and high pressure, the design includes a
self-sealing feature with a low separation force, making the equip-
ment not only suitable for all applications, but providing a safe, reli-
able and easy to operate interface that prevents leaking poppets at
low pressure.
This compact, space saving design is modular, which enables a
standardisation of components. This approach allows a reduction in
manufacturing costs and accelerated production, enabling a quicker,
more competitive supply route.
We have incorporated a flexible seal solution within the seal car-
tridge on the female “flying” coupler. Should damage occur during
mating/de-mating the modular seal is easily replaced. The design
enables a large misalignement between male and female couplers.
The fully welded housing minimises leak point, providing a robust,
safe and reliable connection.

HISC Precautions
Nitronic® 50, UNS S20910 is listed in ISO15156/3 / NACE MR-
0175 Part 3, table A2 with an environmental limit on H2S of 15 psi
partial pressure. 66oC is the maximum application temperature
for the alloy due to chloride stress corrosion cracking. There is no
limitation on chloride concentration below the temperature limit.
Nitronic® 50 is an austenitic stainless steel and does not exhibit PEEK
sensitivity to hydrogen embrittlement.

Tripple Barrier Dynamic Seals

The Couplers are fitted with three dynamically activated seals.
Our standard offer utilizes a spring energized metal seal as the
primary seal, and high-end elastomer seals as secondary and sea-
water barriers. The sealing solutions are developed in coopera-
tion with a renowned seal supplier and utilizes standard materials
for seals for the various applications.
Costumer specific testing/verification of seals can be performed
on short notice if required.

SINGLE BORE
HEAVY DUTY ROV CONNECTOR
Product ID: 20502-0430-01

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Our Heavy Duty (HD) Connectors enable the quick, secure and per-
manent connection of a hydraulic or chemical control lines between
subsea infrastructure.
Integrating our hydraulic and chemical couplers in an adaptable
locking system enables a field proven system that allows for a high
degree of misalignment during mating. This makes installation both
quicker, easier and improves the general reliability.
The inboard section fitted to the subsea infrastructure is the male
coupler. The outboard (flying) section is the female that contains the
sealing elements. This makes change out, maintenance and repair
incredibly easy.
Our robust design is to accommodate rough handling and to ensure
a system that reduces both the risk of connection failure and reduc-
es installation time. We offer a full range of parking positions, test
and flushing as well as pressure compensated caps and protective
caps.

SMALL BORE BALL VALVES

Product ID: 20502-0450-01

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Our ball valves, for ½” to 2” high pressure control systems, are a form
of quarter-turn valve which uses a pivoting perforated ball to control
flow.
Implementing a unique manufacturing process we are able to weld
rather than bolt the components. Not only does this considerably in-
crease the quality and reliability of each unit, but it also significantly
reduces the size and weight up to 70% of industry alternatives.
With flexible, modular and interchangeable sealing options we can
supply competitive solutions from hydraulic valves to high perfor-
mance gas applications.
Fully qualified to PSL 3 / 3G, this lightweight and compact solution
provides the highest level of safety and assurance, reducing opera-
tional risk and cost.

MULTI-BORE ROV STAB PLATE

Product ID: 20502-0440-01

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

An MQC plate is fitted with multiple hydraulic/chemical couplers

that enable transfer of a variety of fluids between subsea sys-
tems such as trees and manifolds. Manufactured in male and
female pairs, each MQC plate is designed specific for the appli-
cation.
Our MQC plates are fitted with our hydraulic and chemical cou-
plers that enable a compact, lightweight design that is easy to
handle and quick to install – reducing subsea operation and in-
stallation time.
Fitted with a secondary release mechanism which is easy to op-
erate, the MQC plate provides a secure interface within the sub-
7 sea distribution system.
