Product Description

The AMOT 7001 swing gate air shut off valve is designed for the wear and tear of the frac industry. The AMOT 7001 swing gate valve will effectively shut down a runaway diesel engine by closing off engine intake air. The valve is specifically designed to fit MTU Series 4000 (S81/S82/S83) high horsepower engines.

Hydraulic fracturing technology requires the use of heavy-duty, high-horsepower diesel engines. Hydrocarbons released in an area where a diesel engine operates can lead to diesel engine runaway, which can be a hazardous situation. Once an engine begins to run on the external fuel source, turning off the ignition will have no effect. The engine will continue to run out of control, leading to mechanical failure and, potentially, an explosion. The AMOT 7001 swing gate air shut off valve is designed for the harsh wear and tear of the frac industry. The valve will effectively shut down a runaway diesel engine by closing off engine intake air.
