Gas Flash Back Arrestors
A flash back arrestor is a safety device that shuts off gas flow in the event of a flash back, which is the combustion of a gas mixture within the gas management system. This flashback can then travel back along the gas line to the gas source causing a potentially huge explosive issue. A flash back arrestor will shut off the gas supply and extinguish any flame.
Several factors can cause a flashback including failing to purge a gas line properly, using improper pressure, leaks in the gas system and improper system operation.
Examples of typical gases where flash back arrestors are required are:
-
- Acetylene – C2H2
- Hydrogen – H2
- Methane – CH4
- Oxygen – O2
- Propane – C3H8
