Fluid Transfer

Here is an overview of our old and newer styles of Flush Face Couplers, along with key benefits. Our Fluid Transfer product family includes Flush Face quick disconnect products, a Fluid Evacuation Coupling, a Grease Transfer Coupling, and our Classic Range of quick couplings.
Banlaw’s fluid evacuation couplings transform waste fluid removal practices. Using just one Coupling, service teams can connect to all the Banlaw Flush Face receivers from size 1 to size 11. Waste products are evacuated using a vacuum rather than gravity to reduce fluid removal times.
Banlaw’s Arctic Range of products enable industrial users of diesel fuels and lubes to keep operating during cold winter months.
Banlaw’s Classic range of couplings has been proven in some of the world’s harshest environments for over 20 years. Today the classic range is still relevant, and is the desired choice where the use of non-ferrous metals isn’t permitted, or where cross compatibility with some non-Banlaw couplings is required.
The combination of aligned mating surfaces and heavy duty dust caps in Banlaw’s Flush Face range drastically reduces premature component wear. Each size fitting is unique and colour coded to prevent accidental connection. This stops cross contamination between differing fluid types. It is impossible to connect couplings which are not paired. The Flush Face coupling is designed to enable the operator to wipe the coupling faces clean before connecting the transfer hose.
Long haul rail trips are demanding on your inter-vehicle refuelling requirements. A safe, simple, reliable In Line connection system is required to keep your operation moving. Banlaw has developed a unique, leak free, safe and reliable product.
Pacific National – a large freight loco operator in Australia – had safety concerns regarding their fluid couplings used within In Line Refuelling systems, commonly used on longer haul journeys. Concerns included: spillage of fuel when connecting and disconnecting the couplings, difficulty in connecting the couplings with residual fuel pressure within the hose, and unintentional disconnection of the couplings during a journey.
We have our own in-house machining and assembly expertise, ensuring that products are of the highest quality and enabling us to incorporate additional safety, efficiency and user-friendly features.
Your refuelling and fluid management systems need to be properly maintained to ensure you gain the maximum benefit from our solutions. Regular inspections are also a legislative requirement in some countries. Let our expert team make scheduled maintenance cost effective and efficient. We can also provide complete site audits on actual fuel usage and workplace practices in relation to fuels and fluid handling. We offer routine inspections, maintenance, meter calibrations, and reporting on the condition of facilities, equipment, and machines.
Modern engines and plant equipment are designed to offer increased efficiency, reduced emissions and longer service intervals. As a result, they are also more sensitive to fuel and oil contaminants. In particular, higher fuel pressures within engines to achieve a more complete combustion lead to closer tolerances, causing even smaller particles to have an effect on the life and performance of fuel system components. Modern ULSDs and biodiesels also pose an increased risk of water (moisture) retention and microbial contamination, which left undetected and untreated, can seriously degrade the quality of the fuel, and introduce other problems including reduced fuel filter life and accelerated corrosion of tanks, pipes and other metal components.
