Flame Arrestor Kit Installation and Operation
6 .1 IMPORTANT WARNING
The Model 5120 TEG with Flame Arrestor Kit has been tested in compliance with API
Recommended Practice 12N, for the Operation, Maintenance and Testing of Firebox Flame
Arrestors as it applies to continuously run, gas fired, natural draft burners.
The Flame Arrestor Kit includes a flame arrestor on the air intake, which has been tested in
compliance with CSA standard Z343-98. Global Power Technologies (GPT) considers compli
-
ance with API 12N and CSA Z343-98 as evidence that the Flame Arrestor Kit is adequate for
use in unclassified areas.
Ultimately, decisions concerning the installed location and operation of a TEG (with or without
a flame arrestor) are the responsibility of the customer, and installations should comply with all
applicable regulations. It must be noted that if a customer defines an area as hazardous (ie.
may contain hazardous gases such as in a Class 1, Division 2 area) then TEG models 1120
& 1500 are the only TEGs suitable for installation in these hazardous areas. The addition of a
flame arrestor kit does not make the Model 5120 TEG suitable for use in a hazardous area. For
hazardous area use, TEGs require reduced surface temperatures (below hazardous gas igni
-
tion temperatures), addition of air intake and exhaust flame arrestors, and other modifications.
All TEG operators should be trained to follow the safe start-up procedure as outlined in the
applicable TEG operating manual. Global Power Technologies (GPT) offers formal training
programs on a regular basis. For further information contact GPT at (403)236-5556.
