Abstract
An emergency shut-off valve assembly includes a valve having a closure assembly that includes a closure member coupled to an arm that rotates about a shaft. The valve assembly also includes an actuation assembly having a securement member coupled to the shaft; and an electromagnet adapted to generate a first magnetic force in a first state and a second magnetic force in a second state. In the first state, a contact surface of the securement member is in contact with and magnetically coupled to a contact surface of the electromagnet such that the closure member, the arm, and the shaft are maintained in the first open position against a rotational force provided by a biasing member. In the second state, the closure member, the arm, and the shaft are rotated into the second closed position by the rotational force provided by the biasing member.
