QUICK OPENING CLOSURES

Below are some of the different types of quick opening closures available for pressure vessels:

• Tool-less closures: These are high-pressure quick opening closures suitable for pressure vessels with vertical and horizontal configurations. As the name suggests, tool-less closures are designed for quick opening and closing without the use of other tools.
• Yoke-style closures: These are great alternatives to flanged closures that may be too big and time-consuming. These closures can be fitted with additional components such as sprocket drives, wrenches and chains for easier and faster operation.
• Threaded closures: Known for their simplicity and durability, threaded quick opening closures feature smaller fabricated components such as heads and hubs. They are among the most affordable options on the market and can meet demanding applications.
• Rotary self-lock closures: These are commonly used in the oil and gas industry because of their efficiency and reliability. They feature a rotating head mechanism that offers a secure and leak-proof seal for pressure vessels.
• Clamp ring closures: They feature a clamping mechanism for tight sealing, making them ideal for frequent opening and closing.
• Bolted closures: Bolted closures are also popular in the oil and gas industry but can be tailored to fit other industrial applications. Ideal for nominal pressure applications, they are versatile and easy to maintain and repair, making them common in various industries.
• Split closures: These allow swift access to equipment and pipelines with their split body design. They’re ideal for applications with limited access to other closure types due to space constraints.
