The AT-EGS201 Explosion-Proof Emergency Gas Start Button is a multi-wire manual control device designed for gas fire extinguishing systems in flammable and explosive environments. It is typically installed near the gas discharge area to provide manual emergency release and emergency stop functions.
When on-site personnel confirm a fire, they can open the transparent cover and press the black glass start button to directly trigger the gas release output. Before gas discharge, if personnel confirm that no fire has occurred, the red stop button can be pressed to abort the gas discharge output. The plug-in structure and cover-protected operation greatly improve safety and prevent accidental actuation.
The device features a robust flameproof and dust-ignition-proof composite enclosure with IP66 protection rating, effectively resisting dust contamination and humid air. It complies with the latest GB/T3836 explosion-proof standards and is suitable for Zone 1 / 2 gas and Zone 21 / 22 dust hazardous areas in petrochemical plants, oil depots and similar industrial sites.
