Fire Safe Valves



  • Fire Safe Valves
    		KENCO ENGINEERING - Fire Safe Valve

    OPERATING PRINCIPLE

    The Fire Safe Oil Control System provides two spring-loaded, thermally actuated valves. In the event of a fire, these valves automatically close, stopping the flow of oil from the crankcase of the engine and the reserve oil supply for the controller. Because the Oil Level Controller will melt down during a fire, this prevents the addition of oil from the crankcase and the Controller's reserve oil supply to the fire.

    BENEFITS

    • Lower insurance rates
    • Protection in case of fire to equipment
