Zipfluid Loading Arms for Methyl Chloride

Methyl-Chloride is a colorless and volatile liquid having a sweet odor and is employed as solvent, mainly in the production of silicones and in the production of chemical products for agriculture, methylcellulose, quaternary amines, and, among others, tetramethyl lead.
In the past, it was also used inside refrigerators, but – due to its level of toxicity – it has been replaced by new chemical compounds, for example Freon.

ZIPFLUID SOLUTION

Zipfluid’s proposal for Methyl-Chloryde includes bottom loading stations – our model LA400 made in AISI316L stainless steel with seals in PTFE and quick couplers Stanag 3756.
Mass-flowmeters or ultrasonic meters combined with flow check-valves and electronic heading.
Among the most commonly used accessories: standpost, breakaway valve series VA400 and grounding monitor (Timm EKX-4).
