Specifications for safety shut-off unit type USSA

Safety shut-off unit type USSA

The Elster safety shut-off unit type USSA is a safety shut-off for the medium-pressure segment. These types of safety shut-offs have been used extensively in HAS installations.

In combination with the safety shut-off type USSA we have two different constructions in our product line therefore we are able to supply both safety devices for HAS sets. The USSA safety shut-off has an internal bypass and a position indicator.

The type USSA belongs to the brand Elster-Jeavons and is fitted as standard on a gas pressure regulator type J125. The shut-offs can be supplied with under pressure (UPSS), overpressure (OPSS) or a combination of both (OUPSS).

Due to the modular design, this safety shut-off can also be combined with a dust filter. The filter/OPSO set is a combination of the following types of safety devices and the small dust filter type DF.
