9、 inch-pounds of torque applied at the knob. The cutting oxygen control valve shall not leak externally at a pressure of 50 psig or greater, when the valve is open or closed. 3.5 Gas inlets. The torch handle shall have a reverse flow check valve that meets the requirements of CGA E-2, “Hose Line Chec

10、k Valve Standards for Welding and Cutting“, and a flashback arrestor that is built into the handle for both the fuel inlet and the oxygen inlet lines. Hose connections shall be at the rear of the torch handle and shall meet the requirements for threaded connections 022 and 023 of CGA E-1, “Standard

11、for Rubber Welding Hose and Hose Connections for Gas Welding, Cutting, and Allied Processes“. Each inlet shall be clearly and permanently marked to identify the acetylene and oxygen lines. 3.6 Welding tips. Each welding tip provided for use with the type I torch shall be of the gooseneck design and

12、shall include an integral mixer with each tip. The tips shall provide a long bulbous flame symmetrical with the axis of the end of the tip. Unless otherwise specified (see 7.3(c), the type I torch shall be provided with three welding tips that shall be of the drill sizes shown in table I. Tips shall

The torches shall be supplied with correctly sized wrenches having suitable openings for all sizes of tip nuts, hose connections, and packing nuts where adjustments are required. The wrenches

20、 shall be inherently corrosion resistant or shall be plated or treated for corrosion resistance. 3.10 Performance. 3.10.1 Oxygen flow rate. The type I torch, with the largest cutting tip (see table II) installed in the cutting attachment, shall have a cutting oxygen flow rate of not less than 450 cu

21、bic feet per hour (cfh) at a torch oxygen inlet pressure not exceeding 90 psig. The type II torch, with its largest cutting tip (see table II) installed, shall have a cutting oxygen flow rate of not less than 850 cfh at a torch oxygen inlet pressure not exceeding 85 psig. 3.10.2 Acetylene flow rate.

22、 The type I torch, with the largest cutting tip (see table II) installed in the cutting attachment and the preheat flame adjusted to neutral, shall have an acetylene flow rate of not less than 25 cfh at a torch acetylene inlet pressure not greater than 10 psig. The type II torch, with the largest cu

23、tting tip (see table II) installed and the preheat flame adjusted to neutral, shall have an acetylene flow rate of not less than 40 cfh at a torch acetylene inlet pressure not greater than 10 psig. 3.10.3 Leakage. Joints, valves, o-ring seals, metal-to-metal mating seals, gas passages, connections,

24、and glands shall be capable of sustaining gas pressures of not less than 50 psig internally and externally. Valves shall sustain the gas pressures without leakage sufficient for formation of a bubble when submerged in clean water for 10 seconds, both when the valves are closed and when the valves ar

25、e open to gas passage. The cutting tip seats shall not allow gas leakage at operating pressures, or higher, when tightened with not greater than 20 foot-pounds of torque applied at the tip nut. 3.10.4 Backfire and flashback.

Terms used in this document are defined as follows: a. Backfire. The explosion of gases due to a momentary re

36、trogression of the flame into the torch tip, usually caused by snuffing the burning tip against any surface or by an imbalance of gases. A typical backfire (a loud “pop“) results in immediate, automatic extinguishing of the flame and, if an ignition source exists outside of the tip, the mixed gases

37、then promptly re-light and burn properly. b. Flashback. A retrogression of the flame into the torch, as far back as the mixing chamber, and a sustained burning of gases inside the torch or tip. 7.5 Subject term (key word) listing.
