Amerex 12740

The Amerex 12740 is a mechanical gas valve trip assembly required for operation with mechanical gas valves in Amerex kitchen fire suppression systems. On system discharge, the cable from the release module pulls the latch, allowing the spring to close the valve and stop gas flow to the appliance, providing automatic gas shutoff during fire suppression system discharge for safer kitchen fire protection.
