Fusible link is installed on the hydralic line entering the actuator of the Blowdown valve. The frangible element (fusible link) will melt when exposed to a fire and cause an automatic blowdown of the exposed part of the system.

How did fusible plug works at oil and gas wells?

A fusible plug at oil and gas wells is designed to melt when exposed to high temperatures, thereby releasing pressure and preventing potential explosions. This safety device acts as a safeguard by allowing pressure to be relieved through controlled means, protecting the well and surrounding equipment from damage or hazards. It serves as a crucial component in the overall safety systems implemented in oil and gas operations.

Fire-o-matic safety valve how does it operate?

The Fire-O-Matic valve is placed in the oil supply pipe of an oil burner heating system to prevent fire from reaching the fuel tank. If the oil burner has an accidental mechanical failure of some sort whereby its automatic controls or safety shutdown controls did not turn the furnace off automatically; then the possibility occurs where the oil burner would keep working (firing) until the furnace became cherry red. When the furnace melts down it may cause the oil tank supply pipe drawing oil from the oil tank to the burner to break open to the atmosphere. This exposes the oil in the oil tank to an ignition source and it could possibly ignite or explode. To prevent this from happening a Fire-O-Matic valve is installed between the oil burner pump and the oil tank next to the boiler. The valve has an internal metal fusible link that holds the valve in the open position under normal operating conditions. The link is made of soft metal similar to lead and made to melt at a certain surrounding air temperature. If the furnace overheats the valve which is mounted next to the furnace will become too warm and the metal fusible link will melt and shut off the fuel supply to try and prevent further damage from a major explosion.
