Drawings are selection references. Confirm dimensions, tolerances and interfaces against the approved drawing before manufacture.
Confirm Before Order
- Confirm seal material and compatibility with the intended medium before quotation.
- Confirm dimensions, mating connection and supplied fittings against an approved order drawing.
- Confirm actuator air pressure, control arrangement, thermal-release installation and flow capacity; the source does not specify these order values.
- Drawing callouts reproduce source labels; verify which diameters are bores, bolt circles or flange outside diameters against the approved engineering drawing.
Engineering Note
Select the tank mounting flange, outlet flange, control and seal together. The drawing is a purchasing reference; final fit, emergency operation and breakaway performance require the approved configuration and supporting documentation.
SIMEI FT-BV-21080 mm two-way pressure-balanced bottom valve
Tanker-bottom emergency shut-off valve with an internal sealing disc and an external breakaway housing. The family description identifies water, diesel, petrol and other light fuels; final media and operating conditions must be confirmed.
Technical details

80 mm two-way pressure-balanced bottom valve
Tanker-bottom emergency shut-off valve with an internal sealing disc and an external breakaway housing. The family description identifies water, diesel, petrol and other light fuels; final media and operating conditions must be confirmed.
Technical detailsMain features
- The internal disc seals within the tank; the external housing has a shear groove intended to break away while leaving the tank mounting flange and internal sealing mechanism intact.
- Oxidation-treated aluminium-alloy construction is intended to improve corrosion resistance.
- The flow-path design is intended to support large inlet and outlet flow; the catalogue gives no rated flow value.
- The family description provides mechanical emergency opening when pneumatic opening is unavailable.
- A fusible element is described as closing the valve automatically at 75°C ±5°C; confirm the fitted release and control arrangement for the selected configuration.
- Opening and closing are separately controlled by the switch; a two-way operating mechanism is illustrated.
- Manual opening is provided when pneumatic operation or the air supply is unavailable.
- An internal pressure-balancing mechanism is described; the intended resistance to opening under medium pressure requires confirmation.
Available Configurations
- Illustrated detail: Pneumatic connection detail
- Illustrated detail: Two-way operating mechanism
- Illustrated detail: Matching mounting flange
- Illustrated detail: External operating handle
