  1. AirGuard Protection System Protection units for compressed air

  2. Protection units for Compressed Air When the issue is: Protection of personnel, pneumatic tools, machinery and equipment The “AirGuard“ air fuse is the answer

  3. Protection! • Protecting People • Protecting Facilities • Protecting Production • Protecting investments AirGuard Air Fuse

  4. Electricity Fuse! • When did your electricity fuse blow???? At home or at work?

  5. Protection! • We are protected in everyday life: • At home • Electric fuses • Alarms • Computers • Firewalls, from viruses, backup • In our cars • Safety belts • Airbags • Alarm

  6. Protection • But why not protect and safeguard the most valuable assets: • Your employees? • Your production? • Your tools, equipment and plant?

  7. Protection • Already exists for ; • Electricity • Hydraulic • Water & fluids But for compressed air?

  8. Where Danger Lurks AirGuard – air fuse can protect

  9. Danger!! ½” hose out of control !! 9

  10. Danger ! 10

  11. Danger!! But what if one of these - (1” or 2“ hoses) was severed! 11

  12. AirGuard System Meets Following Safety Requirements

  13. AirGuard - How It Works • Function: (P) is the inlet. Air passes the piston (1) and continues through the seat (3). The air flow, passing the piston, is slowed down by means of length wise grooves on the outer side of the piston. If the flow is too high, the air cannot pass the piston quickly enough, and the piston is forced against the spring (2) and towards the seat. E.g. if the hose suddenly breaks - the air supply is automatically shut off. An integral bleed hole allows some air to flow through. This enables the line pressure to automatically reset the AirGuard once the main line break is repaired.

  14. AirGuard - Technical Data

  15. AirGuard for Compressed Air Systems How to select the optimal size of an AirGuard • 120 300 600 1200 3000 6000 12000 air flow L/min • (2) (4.2) (10.5) (21) (42) (112) (210) (420) (scfm) 0 hose internal diameter mm (in.) 6 8 10 13 16 20 2 4 6 8 hose length – meters (feet) 10 12 14 16 18 20 1/4” 3/8” 1/2” 3/4” 1. Determine the internal diameter of the hose, tube or pipe being used. 2. Determine the length of the hose, tube or pipe. 3. Read the length of the hose, tube or pipe 4. Result: every flow value to the right of the vertical line would activate the Air Guard in case of a bursting hose, pipe or tube Example: How to determine the correct AirGuard for an 8mm internal diameter & 10 metre long air hose (see the 10 metre hose line above) the intersection point is to the right of the vertical line. Result: a 3/8” AirGuard can be used.
