12791 Amerex 1" Mechanical Gas Valve - OEM

The Amerex 12791 mechanical gas valve is a 1‑inch, brass‑body valve specifically designed for use in Amerex kitchen fire suppression systems (KP or Zone Defense). It features a “pull-to-close” latch mechanism: when the suppression system is triggered, a cable from the release module pulls the latch to close the valve via a spring, stopping gas flow safely and automatically. It’s UL listed for both natural gas and propane and built to integrate seamlessly with Amerex mechanical release modules.

Key Features:

• Size: 1″ NPT brass valve, designed for gas‑fired kitchen appliances. 

• Operating Mechanism: Pull‑to‑close latch — held open under normal operation, then closed by a spring when tripped. 

• Compatibility: Works with Amerex MRM, MRM II, or PRM release modules via a gas trip assembly. 

• UL-Listed: Certified for use with both natural gas and propane in Amerex suppression systems. 

• Included Components: Comes with a trip assembly (cable + latch) that allows integration with Amerex release mechanism. 

• Safety Indicator: The housing has a visual indicator to show valve’s status (open or closed).
