Opw
OPW is a leading global supplier of products and systems used for the safe and efficient loading, transfer, handling and unloading of critical fluids, such as crude oil, shale oil, refined fuels, LPG, LNG, biodiesel, butadiene, corn syrup and a wide array of hazardous chemicals.
OPW offers premium-grade top and bottom loading arms, swivel joints, sight flow indicators, quick and dry disconnect couplers and safety breakaways for use in railcar rack systems and platforms, bulk plant and liquid terminals applications.
Top Loading Arm
Top Loading railcars and trucks continue to provide an efficient and cost effective method to load and unload in many situations. Top loading arms can also be used for tight-fill, vapor recovery, marine and other applications when used with specially designed and engineered components, such as vapor plates, tapered hatch plugs, and inflatable hatch seals.
Bottom Loading Arm
OPW Bottom Loading Arm Systems are ideal for loading and unloading petroleum products, chemicals and liquefied gases, and offer numerous benefits over conventional top-loading systems:
Improved safety since operator remains on the ground during loading/unloading
Quicker connections reduce overall loading/unloading time
Custom Loading Arms
The Compact type is designed for replacement of existing valves, limited F-F dimension or large diameter pipeline applications or limited space for installation. It is designed with a short face to face, and has tapped bolt holes for easy installation between flanges. The compact design also reduces weight and requirement for extra pipe support.
API Lynx Bottom Coupler
OPW Engineered Systems has long been recognized as the company that sets the standard when it comes to API Bottom-Loading Couplers. The 1004D3 and Lynx has been designed to be the safest, cleanest and fastest way to load transports.
Plug and Cords
Civacon Plug & Cord sets for your your terminal loading systems offer safety, reliability, corrosion resistance and long product life-cycle. They are also very easy to use and handle.
Rack Monitor
OPW Engineered Systems customers now have access to Civacon’s standard-setting rack monitoring technology backed by OPW Engineered Systems’ world-class service and support.

Autolok®- Self Locking Arms
OPW’s Autolok® Quick Disconnects are the industry standard in cam-and-groove couplers for safety and ease of use. All Autoloks feature the exclusive Twin-Kam™ arm design to help prevent accidental release, and Spring-Ring™ to ensure proper position of finger rings.
Kamlok® Series
OPW’s Kamlok® Quick Disconnects are the industry standard in cam-and-groove couplers for safety and ease of use. All Kamlok couplers and dust caps feature the exclusive Twin-Kam™ arm design to help prevent accidental release, and Spring-Ring™ to ensure proper position of finger rings.
Kamvalok® Series
Because of its unique poppet action the OPW Kamvalok® Dry Disconnect virtually eliminates spillage of any residual liquid contained within the line after disconnection. Kamvaloks® are used at transfer points where product loss is unacceptable.
Drylok™
Drylok® dry disconnect couplers and adaptors are designed to safely transfer hazardous, corrosive volatile liquids such as acids, solvents and petrochemicals. Rugged design, excellent flow with little product loss makes the Drylok ideal for the most challenging loading-rack environments.
Epsilon®
Featuring an innovative double ball-valve system, Epsilon™ Dry Disconnect Couplings deliver the lowest product loss in the industry. A tactical balance of an unrestricted flow path and double shutoff reliability makes Epsilon™ the safest and most efficient coupling system in the world.
Hiltap™
The HT3-TL Transfer-Loading Series is an all-purpose high-performance quick coupler designed for leak-proof sealing through a wide range of temperatures. The design offers a non-restrictive flow with no variation in pipe diameter. The reusable metal-to-metal wedge-sealing components further enhance the seal as temperature changes are encountered.
Process Products
OPW Engineered Systems offers products that monitor, sense and reveal the fluids in your operation. These products are used for monitoring petroleum products, liquefied gases, solvents, or hazardous, corrosive chemicals.
Visi Flo®
Sight-flow indicators are a cost-effective and efficient way to visually monitor the flow of fluids and to determine if any problems exist at certain points along the industrial process line. VISI-FLO® is the most thoroughly engineered sight-flow indicator on the market and is available in three series: the Standard 1400 Series, the 1500 High-Pressure/High-Temperature Series and the 1600 OEM Series.
ISO-Ring Gauge
The OPW Engineered Systems patented gauge isolation ring, called ISO-Ring® , is designed to isolate gauges or pressure switches from solids in process flow and to ensure accurate pressure readings.
ISO Spool
This patented product is designed to provide a large sensing area in smaller pipe diameters from 1" to 4". Offered in both NPT threaded and flanged models and available with flat or raised face.
