The LNG Emergency Release Valve (Breakaway Coupling) is a critical safety component in refueling systems. Its regular inspection and replacement are essential to ensure operational safety. Neglecting replacement may lead to:

• Material Aging: Seals and mechanical parts degrade due to cryogenic temperatures (-162°C) and repeated stress.

• Seal Failure: Worn seals can cause LNG leaks, posing fire/explosion risks.

• Failure to Activate: Corroded or damaged mechanisms may not disconnect during emergencies, escalating accidents.

Key Recommendations:

1. Scheduled Replacement: Follow manufacturer guidelines and industry standards (e.g., ISO 28460, OCIMF).

2. Post-Incident Inspection: Replace after any triggering event, even if no visible damage exists.

3. Proactive Maintenance: Prioritize valve integrity to prevent catastrophic failures.

Conclusion: Ignoring replacement compromises the entire safety chain. Regular maintenance is non-negotiable for protecting lives, assets, and the environment.

(Note: "LNG Emergency Release Valve" is used here for broader comprehensibility, while "Breakaway Coupling" remains technically accurate.)
