Benefits:
a large surface area flame arrestor FA of stainless steel construction extinguishes any dangerous flashback entering the device in any direction
a temperature-sensitive cut-off valve TV extinguishes sustained flashbacks long before the internal temperature of the arrestors reaches a dangerous level
a spring-loaded check valve NV prevents slow or sudden reverse gas flow forming explosive mixtures in the gas supply
Operation / Usage:
in central gas supplies (behind the manifold pressure regulator or in a pipeline system)
in thermal processing systems conforming to EN 746-2 (cutting machines, furnace supply equipment)
WITT safety groups may be mounted in any position / orientation in pipelines / supply pipes
the maximum ambient / working temperature is 70 °C / 158 °F
Maintenance:
annual testing of the check valve, body leak tightness and flow capacity is recommended
