OXYLANCE THERMAL SHUTOFFS (ANTI SLAG DEVICE)

The Oxylance anti-slag safety device performs three (3) important safety functions which help protect the user and the equipment. These functions are as follows:

1. HIGH GAS VOLUME NON-RETURN VALVE: The high gas volume non-return valve prevents the reverse flow of oxygen into the hose.

2. THERMAL SHUT OFF DEVICE: The thermal shut off activates cutting off the oxygen flow instantly extinguishing the burning bar / oxygen lance pipe if the bar / pipe burns back into the holder, if slag enters the holder, and/or heating of the holder to the point of injuring the operator (i.e., 3 to 5 second internal heating to 160 C +/- 5 degrees).

3. ANTI-SLAG & BACKFIRE BARRIER: The combination anti-slag anti-back fire element provides several safetyfunctions. The barrier prevents molten slag and backfires from igniting the oxygen hose. In addition, the barrier helps activate the thermal shut off stopping the flow of oxygen and extinguishing the fire.
