| FUNCTION |
| Although the flashback arrestor will prevent a flashback from passing into the hose, the cause of
every flash back must be established and the fault responsible must be eliminated before the equipment is re-used. |
| MAINTENANCE |
| The flashback arrestor should be regularly tested with nitrogen for leaks to atmosphere and the non-return value for reverse flow. |
