FireBag
Use & Care Manual
1. INTRODUCTION
The FireBag automatically turns off gas
supply in the event of fire, preventing
explosions and the spreading of fire.
When outside temperature reaches
203˚F to 212˚F (95˚C to 100˚C) the metal
alloy that keeps plug and cartridge
together melts and the spring pressure
pushes the plug against the gas opening
to close it completely.
No fire or heat detectors are required to
automatically intercept gas flow.
2. GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

connection or with integrated interceptor
valve (GT2, G4T or R4T).
