The Victor 0316-0022 Gas Separator is a critical internal component designed specifically for the maintenance and repair of Victor's heavy-duty cutting attachments. Engineered to meet the rigorous standards of industrial oxy-fuel cutting, this part is compatible with the CA2460, CA2461, and CA2462 series attachments. As a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part, it ensures that the gas flow dynamics within the torch handle and attachment remain within factory specifications, which is vital for both performance and safety.
Constructed from high-quality, precision-machined brass, the gas separator functions to maintain the distinct paths of oxygen and fuel gas before they reach the mixing chamber. In oxy-fuel systems, the integrity of internal seals and separators is paramount to prevent gas crossover, which can lead to dangerous flashbacks or backfires. Over time, internal components can degrade due to thermal cycling, carbon buildup, or mechanical wear. Replacing the gas separator during a comprehensive torch rebuild restores the internal geometry of the gas passages, ensuring a stable, neutral flame and efficient cutting performance.
This component is an essential item for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) professionals and certified torch repair technicians. Using non-OEM or ill-fitting generic parts in high-pressure gas equipment can compromise the seal integrity and mixing ratios. The Victor 0316-0022 guarantees a perfect fit for the specified CA series models, eliminating guesswork and reducing downtime. It is typically installed as part of a broader maintenance schedule that may also include replacing O-rings, seals, and seating surfaces to extend the operational life of the cutting attachment.
