GAS SUPPLIES AND GAS DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM Outlet stations on open decks must always be enclosed in protective cabinets. A special corrosion free glass fibre cabinet is available for this purpose. Each outlet station is fitted with shut-off valves (13) which should be closed during short interruptions in work.

NOTE: There is a filter in the threaded inlet union for the shut-off valve of the gas pipeline, to prevent particles passing into the outlet fittings. In time this filter can become clogged; it should be unscrewed for inspection from time to time.

Also fitted at the outlet station are regulators to set the desired working pressure (14) and flashback arrestors (15) for Acetylene and Oxygen.
