Airgas® flash arrestors provide 3-way protection to prevent flashback of fuel gas and oxygen. A built-in check valve stops reverse gas backflow. The flash arrestor diverts the flashback flame into three feet of tubing where the heat from any possible explosion is absorbed and resulting fire may be extinguished.
Features
The shockwave preceding the flashback flame closes and locks the flash arrestor shutoff valve, thus eliminating gas feeding to any residual sparks or flame.
Specifications
Airgas flash arrestors comply with relevant OSHA and NFPA codes.
