Cables

Black Teknigas offers a range of Free Fall Fire Valves designed to provide automatic fuel isolation in the event of excessive temperature or fire. These valves are actuated by a mechanical system that includes a thermal fuse link and a free-fall mechanism. The thermal fuse link is a mechanical linkage that specifically breaks at 72°C (other temperatures are optional). When the link separates, cable tension is released and the weights fall, triggering the valve to close.
