Hamilton, OH, October 17, 2017 — OPW, a Dover company (NYSE: DOV) and a global leader in fluid-handling solutions, is pleased to introduce the 1” version of its popular 68EZR Reconnectable Breakaway Valve. The new 1” 68EZR is ideal for use in high-throughput applications, such as diesel and biodiesel fueling sites.

OPW 68EZR Reconnectable Breakaway Valves have been specifically designed for retail-fueling operations as a way to protect dispensing equipment and customer vehicles from potential damage, and customers and attendants from a potential hazardous situation in the event of a drive-away incident. The OPW 68EZR uses an innovative patented, UL-listed design to ensure that it is not only the fastest and easiest breakaway in the industry to reconnect, but also the one that delivers the greatest security and peace of mind after it is reconnected. The 68EZR delivers trusted OPW quality and proven technology to the retail-fueling market at the lowest cost of ownership.

Unlike any other reconnectable breakaway on the market, the new 1” OPW 68EZR features:

• Fastest, Easiest and Most Secure Reconnection
• Visual Reconnection Instructions
• Audible Click and Green Indicator to prove that it is Locked and Secure
• No Annual Maintenance
• Lowest Overall Total Cost of Ownership 

The 68EZR features simple “Push-Twist-Click” technology, which makes any drive-away scenario a snap to fix. Simply realign the valve, push in and then twist until you hear the audible click and see the green indicator in cover’s outer shell. Unlike other breakaway valves, the click sound and the green indicator give you complete peace of mind assurance that the valve has been securely reattached.
