Safety campaign
10 June 2014
To help the fluid power market comply with current safety directives associated with the usage of compressed air and better understand the risks of not taking simple and cost effective measures to safeguard employees, plant and equipment; Tom Parker has revealed a host of safety focused products and officially launched its ‘Safety First’ campaign to raise awareness.

The ‘HoseGuard’ is key to the Protect Air brand of compressed air safety products being distributed to the UK by Tom Parker. Essential for instances where pressure exceeds pre-set safety levels, this small but effective air fuse eliminates the risk of hose whip by automatically activating an internal piston, reducing the supply of compressed air and allowing the airline to equalise back to safe levels.
Another product that is easy to fit into any line is the ‘ToolReg’; an independent piston regulator, which when mounted onto any pneumatic tool both regulates and maintains pressure during operation and disconnection.
