An Indane Gas Latino safety device operates as an automatic shut-off valve for LPG cylinders, detecting major leaks by a ruptured tube or faulty regulator and immediately stopping the gas flow to prevent accidents. It also offers a low gas indicator and a facility to test for minor leaks. To use it, ensure your stove controls are off, connect the device to the cylinder, then connect your hose and stove to the device. If a major leak occurs, the device will shut off the gas, indicated by the dial returning to zero.
How it Works
Detects Major Leaks: The device is designed to shut off the gas supply during a major leak caused by a ruptured tube or regulator failure.
Automatic Shut-off: When a major leak occurs, the internal mechanism triggers, and the gas flow is automatically cut off.
Indications: A shut-off is indicated by the dial returning to zero.
Minor Leak Testing: The device can also be used to test for minor leaks, which is done by checking for a consistent flow of gas.
How to Use (Basic Operation)
Ensure Stove is Off: Before installing the device, make sure the stove's controls are in the off position.
Attach to Cylinder: Connect the device to the cylinder valve.
Connect Hose and Stove: Attach the hose and then the stove to the device.
Turn on the Gas: Slowly open the valve on the cylinder.
Start Cooking: Turn on your stove controls as normal.
What to Do After a Shut-off
Turn Off Stove: Turn the gas stove controls to the off position.
Repeat Test: Follow the device's instructions for testing minor leaks.
Contact a Professional: If the shut-off continues, it indicates a significant problem, and you should contact an authorized gas technician to rectify the LPG system.
Important Safety Tips
Keep Cylinder Upright: Always keep the gas cylinder in a vertical position.
Check for Leaks: Regularly check hoses for cracks and use ISI-certified hoses.
Ventilation: Store cylinders in a well-ventilated area to prevent vapor buildup.
Call for Leaks: If you smell a gas leak, close the regulator, open windows, do not operate electrical switches,
