A REUSABLE FUSE AT A REASONABLE PRICE
FUZ-VENT IS CERTIFIED TO
MEET DOT/UN STANDARDS
Part #111726
(A) Engineered HDPE Ring.
The center is designed to soften
and burst at 300 degrees F.
The black HDPE withstands
exposure to UV light, most
solvents, and other chemicals. Certified to meet DOT/UN standards.
(B) Molded Gaskets
Buying separate gaskets and
keeping track of them are
unnecessary because one is
already molded under the top's
lid. (optional EPDM gasket is
available for pressures
above 15 PSIG.)
(C) Safety Vents.
The two patented ports are
well above the threads so
that the tank will begin venting
any built up pressure within a
quarter turn. Venting occurs
away from the operator's face
and prevents the device
from popping like a
champagne cork.
(D) Stainless Steel Fitting.
A welded end fitting resists
chemical attack and the rigors
of use. HDPE-to-stainless
contact prevents the galling
that can occur on expensive
threaded pieces when screwing stainless steel into
stainless steel.
(E) Smooth Surface.
The precision-machined
surface mates with the
mold-in gasket
to create a tight seal.
(F) Wide Diameter Port
Besides anchoring the
reusable vents, the 3" NPSD fittings also function as a filling port. The wide diameter makes filling much more convenient.
(G) A Flush Fit.
The fitting is machined to match
the gage of the tank's lid and fit
flush with the underside. The
flush fit eliminates a solids
collection point and a cleaning headache.
(H) Optional Tightening Tool
Allows applying 30 ft-lb of torque. made of aluminum to combine high strength with light weight and low cost.
(I) Standard Socket
Fits standard 1/2" drive.
You can reuse AMI's patented FUZ-VENT™, until it blows. When the time comes to clean or fill a tank, simply unscrew the black HDPE, heat-activated fuse, wash it, and put it back in. The innovated fusible vent pays for itself after only a few turns of the tank's contents when it replaces the cheap crimped fuses that most users pry off and replace at each filling. And it is about a tenth the cost of the conventional reusable design of solder-filled stainless steel. FUZ-VENT™ , exceeds DOT/UN packaging specifications for the transportation of hazardous materials.
