Which devices do fuel gas systems have which of the following for back-pressure prevention devices?

• A. All Choices Are Correct
• B. Check Valves
• C. Three Way Valves
• D. Normal Closed Automatic Shut Off Regulators

Answer: (A)

Back-pressure prevention in fuel gas systems relies on devices that block reverse flow or isolate portions of the system when pressure conditions would push gas back toward the source. A check valve permits flow in only one direction and automatically seals if downstream pressure rises, stopping any backflow. A three-way valve can be arranged to isolate a branch or redirect flow, preventing a buildup of back-pressure from propagating toward the supply. A normally closed automatic shut-off regulator will shut off gas automatically when pressures or conditions indicate a risk of reverse flow, cutting the path to the source. Because each device provides a way to prevent back-pressure, all of them are used in fuel gas systems for this purpose.
