Description:
When FireChek® Senses excessive heat from a nearby fire,it immediately vents the pneumatic actuator and closes the actuator air supply line. FireChek® triggers quickly, securing pneumatically operated process line valves. Because FireChek® responds to heat, not flame, it offers dramatically improved protection compared with conventional plastic tubing burn-through. It shuts off the air supply line to prevent plant air from feeding oxygen to a fire.
Features:
• Rapidly responds to temperature rise, NOT flames
• Vents actuator air pressure
• Closes actuator air supply line
• Needs no power source, self activates
• Compatible with ALL pneumatic actuators
• No contact with process fluids
• Easy to test and reset
• Reliable, intrinsic triggering
• Easily retrofit, installs in minutes
