Description
Thermamax Flashback Arrestors are critical safety components engineered to protect operators and equipment during oxy-fuel welding, cutting, and heating processes. Designed to prevent the reverse flow of gases and extinguish dangerous flashbacks before they reach the primary gas source, these arrestors are a mandatory safety requirement for industrial workshops. Each unit features a multi-stage protection system, including a non-return valve and a flame-arresting element, ensuring maximum security when working with pressurized Oxygen, Acetylene, or LPG.
Key Features:
- Sintered Stainless Steel Filter: Effectively cools and extinguishes the flame front (the flashback) by dissipating heat instantly across a high-surface-area element.
- Non-Return Valve (Check Valve): Prevents the dangerous mixing of gases in the hoses by stopping reverse gas flow immediately.
- Thermal Cut-off Valve: Automatically shuts off the gas supply if the internal temperature of the arrestor reaches a critical limit due to a sustained flashback.
- Color-Coded Identification: Bodies are clearly marked and color-coded (Blue for Oxygen, Red for Fuel Gas) to ensure correct installation and prevent cross-contamination.
- High-Flow Capacity: Engineered to provide minimal pressure drop, ensuring consistent torch performance even during heavy-duty cutting operations.
- Universal Compatibility: Available in both Regulator-Mount and Torch-Mount configurations with standard 3/8-inch BSP threads.
Technical Specifications:
- Gas Types: Oxygen (O2), Acetylene (AC), and LPG/Propane.
- Mounting Options: Regulator-Mount (Standard) or Torch-Mount (Compact).
- Max Working Pressure: * Oxygen: 10 Bar (1.0 MPa)
- Acetylene: 1.5 Bar (0.15 MPa)
- LPG: 5 Bar (0.5 MPa)
- Thread Size: 3/8″ BSP Left Hand (Fuel) / Right Hand (Oxygen).
- Standard Compliance: Fully compliant with EN 730-1 and SANS 50730-1 safety standards.
