Product Description
The Amico Medical Gas British Outlet Slim Style is composed of two separated modules: the “Rough-in assembly” and the
“Latch-valve assembly”.
The “Rough-in assembly” consists of a brass machined body that incorporates a spring loaded check assembly. The
copper pipe is sliver brazed into the body and flared to 12 mm inside diameter for external pipeline connections. The
brass body and pipe assembly are inserted in to a gas specific plate. The “Rough-in assembly” has a colour coded label
on the front plate and the copper pipe, so that the installer can easily identify the gas that the copper pipe should be
connected to. The “Rough-in assembly” incorporated a check valve that allows the “Latch-valve assembly” to be removed
for service, without requiring the pipeline to be shut down. The “Rough-in assembly” has a DUAL pin gas specific indexing
arrangement to prevent the wrong “Latch valve assembly” from being plugged into the “Rough-in assembly” (see page
17).
The “Latch-valve assembly” is manufactured with a gas specific housing which accepts, retains and releases the probe,
indexed on the back side to match gas specific indexing of the “Rough-in assembly”.
CAUTION: DO NOT over tighten the Latch Valve mounting screws! Distortion of the Latch valve can occur.
