TracPipe® FGP-AFD-100A Autotrip Excess Flow Valve, 1/2 in, 3/8 x 1/2 in Nominal, MNPT and FNPT x SAE Flared, 175 scfh

AutoTrip® excess flow valves are designed to activate and shut down gas flow to a non-hazardous level (bypass flow) to avoid the possible dangerous release of gas into the home. Excess flow valves (EFV) are now required by many jurisdictions to protect against hazardous release of fuel gas due to a seismic event, accident or any other situation that could lead to a catastrophic failure of gas piping system components. Insurance companies have also recognized the protection afforded to the homeowner and his family through the installation of these simple but effective safety valves. AutoTrip® excess flow valves are activated by the unrestricted flow of gas, resulting from a gas line rupture. This flow causes the valve to trip (shut down). The bypass flow feature restricts the gas flow to a safe level upon valve activation. Bypass flow provides automatic reset capability once the downstream gas piping has been repaired. AutoTrip® appliance connector (AFD) excess flow valves are designed to be positioned ahead of (upstream from) the flexible appliance connector. Full protection requires one EFV for each appliance branch line. AutoTrip® appliance connector EFVs utilize a spring-activated float valve and are not gravity dependent. This permits their mounting in any position horizontally or vertically (multi-poise).
