Flash Back Arrestors

Non-resettable flashback arrestors fit between the regulator outlet and the gas hose and are an essential safety device when using oxy fuel equipment.

The main function of the flashback arrestor is to extinguish a flame which has flashed back into the gas line which is potentially very dangerous situation.  An FBA (Flashback arrestor) should be fitted to both the Oxygen and the fuel gas hose lines. The flashback arrestor incorporates a pressure sensitive cut off valve or a non return valve, plus a temperature sensitive cut off valve

If these non resetable flashback arrestors are triggered due to an internal temperature cut off, it will no longer be useable and must be replaced.

They will withstand several minor flashbacks but will not react as a consequence of external heat.

Suitable for use with acetylene, propane & hydrogen gas
