Cryogenic Swivel Joints
The swivel joints are the heart of our marine loading arms and allow them to adapt to ships movements. They are key articulations for transporting liquefied natural gas, inserted between two pieces of equipment.
The Emco Wheaton swivel joint is specifically designed for cryogenic applications such as LNG. High-strength alloy construction ensures best-in-class performance in regard to mechanical strength in temperatures as low as -196°C. Thanks to its proven, specialist design, the Emco Wheaton swivel joint offers multiple benefits:
Share
Easy to replace seals (without disassembling the whole loading arm)
Tested and approved according to OCIMF and ISO 16904
Best-in-class performance in regard to mechanical strength
Double sealing arrangement
No particular cool-down requirement
Extended service life due to cladded and fine machined ball track
Compact and lightweight design
