This Can Be Prevented
Undetected low-impact
shear-groove leaks can fill sumps with fuel at an alarming rate to create a potentially dangerous situation for customers, your investments and the environment.

Laboratory Test Results
Percentage of valves that fractured but did not shut-off after a low-impact incident*
*Based on laboratory tests of nine (9) leading emergency shut-off valves (Test Range: 282-575 ft/lb)
77% Valves DID NOT Close
23% Valves Closed

The highest level of protection and
peace-of-mind in the industry against:
• Low-Impact Breaks
• Dislodged Dispensers
• Dispenser Sump Fires

Protection Against Low-Impact Breaks
• Eliminates health, environmental contamination and fire hazards
• Prevents product loss • Prevents costly clean-up
The New OPW 10 Plus is the only Emergency Shut-Off Valve in the industry designed to contain a shear groove leak and close the flow of fuel in the event of an undetected low-impact break

How It Works
1. A shear groove leak is completely contained by the patent-pending SmartGuard™ assembly
2. As the leak persists undetected, the SmartGuard™ continues to contain the fuel and expands until eventually it pushes against the valve’s linkage arm
3. The expanding SmartGuard™ presses against the linkage arm causing it to disengage with the valve body. This action instantly activates the valve poppet to close, stopping the flow of fuel
