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. 1. An emergency shut-off valve assembly , comprising:a valve body defining an inlet, an outlet, and a fluid passageway between the inlet and the outlet; a shaft rotatably coupled to the valve body, the shaft having a shaft longitudinal axis;', 'an arm coupled to the shaft;', 'a closure member coupled to the arm; and', 'a biasing member coupled to the arm or the closure member,', 'wherein the arm, the closure member, and the shaft rotate about the shaft longitudinal axis from a first open position in which the closure member is offset from a valve seat coupled to the valve body and a second closed position in which the closure member sealingly engages the valve seat such that fluid is prevented from flowing through the fluid passageway from the inlet to the outlet; and, 'a valve closure assembly positioned at least partially within the valve body, the valve closure assembly comprising 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, the first magnetic force being greater than the second magnetic force,', ' ...
