API Coupler – WV400
Price range: $400.00 through $4,000.00
The WV400 API Bottom Loading Coupler is built for safe, efficient, and dependable petroleum and hydrocarbon transfer at loading racks and terminals. Designed for rugged industrial use, this API coupler features a stainless steel outer sleeve that resists wear, corrosion, and impact in high-cycle environments.
A one-piece operating handle with a removable pin allows fast, in-field seal replacement, reducing maintenance time and keeping operations moving. Engineered for low maintenance, long service life, and reliable API connections, the WV400 helps minimize downtime while supporting safer, more efficient fuel transfer operations.
- Enhanced Durability: The WV400 features a stainless steel outer sleeve, which provides long life performance and robust protection against the rigors of terminal use, an improvement over some other models that rely solely on hard-anodized aluminum in this area.
- Simplified In-Field Maintenance: It is designed with a one-piece handle and a removable pin system that allows for easy, in-field seal replacement and tear down without requiring specialized tools. This minimizes downtime, which is a key concern in high-volume operations. Other couplers, such as the OPW LYNX, also use a tool-free U-pin design, indicating this is a competitive feature in modern couplers.
- Leak-Free Performance: The design has been proven to be leak-free, successfully exceeding 180,000 operational cycles in real-world testing, ensuring safety and minimizing product loss during transfer operations.
- Secure Latching: It utilizes a unique stainless steel 4 lug design with snap-on functionality for fast and reliable automatic latching, ensuring a secure and safe connection to the API adapter on the tanker.
- Warranty: TheWV400 is backed by a three-year Woodfield product warranty, offering confidence in its long-term reliability and the manufacturer's support. This is a competitive warranty period, as some other brands offer a five-year warranty on metal components only.
- Robust Construction: The coupler has a hard-anodized aluminum body and robust construction designed to withstand extreme working conditions, providing a balance of lightweight design (approx. 18.7 lbs) and strength.
Overall, the WV400's primary differentiators are its robust material choices for durability combined with specific engineering choices that drastically simplify maintenance procedures, making it a reliable and cost-effective option over its lifespan.
