OVERVIEW

Critical Safety for Oxy-Fuel Operations

The Victor 0657-0022 Arrestor Assembly is a vital safety component designed specifically for oxy-fuel cutting and welding systems that utilize British Oxygen (BOC) style connections. In the volatile environment of industrial gas usage, preventing the reverse flow of gases and the propagation of flames back into the supply line is paramount. This assembly acts as a robust barrier, ensuring that dangerous flashbacks are extinguished instantly before they can reach the regulator or gas cylinder.

Manufactured by Victor, a global leader in gas control technology, this arrestor assembly is built to rigorous standards. It features a high-quality brass body that withstands the harsh conditions of industrial environments. Inside, a sintered metal flame arrestor works to quench flames by dissipating heat below the ignition temperature, while a check valve mechanism prevents gases from flowing in the wrong direction. This dual-action protection is essential for maintaining a safe workspace and complying with safety regulations.

This specific model is engineered for Oxygen service and is tailored for equipment requiring British Standard connections. Whether you are maintaining a legacy system or operating in a region where British standards are the norm, the 0657-0022 ensures seamless compatibility and reliable performance. Regular inspection and replacement of safety devices like this arrestor are recommended to maintain peak safety levels in your welding or cutting operations.

FAQ

It serves as a flashback arrestor assembly, preventing flames and reverse gas flow from traveling back into the gas supply equipment.

The product name 'British Oxygen' indicates this assembly is designed for Oxygen service.

It is designed for British Oxygen style connections, which typically utilize British Standard Pipe (BSP) threads rather than standard CGA threads.

No, this is specific to British Oxygen style connections. Standard American equipment uses CGA fittings and would require different arrestors.

It is generally recommended to test them annually and replace them every 5 years, or immediately if a flashback has occurred.

No, this is a safety accessory that attaches to the regulator or torch; it does not replace the regulator itself.

This part is manufactured by Victor (now part of ESAB), a leading brand in gas control equipment.
