A marine quick-closing valve (QCV) is a safety shut-off valve used on ships to immediately stop the flow of flammable or hazardous fluids (typically fuel oil, diesel, or lubricating oil) in the event of a fire or emergency. These valves are remotely operable and are required by SOLAS and classification societies in machinery spaces and fuel systems.
Purpose of a Quick-Closing Valve
- Isolate fuel/oil tanks quickly during emergencies (e.g., engine room fire).
- Prevent fuel from feeding a fire.
- Protect personnel and reduce damage.
- Comply with maritime safety regulations (IMO, SOLAS, class societies)
