New member here. I'm trying to find info on whether back flow and flash arrestors are required on small hand gas/air torches, ones typically used for arts & crafts. The back flow devices I've seen typically require more of a pressure drop (~5#) then is present for these torches (~2#). I was checking OSHA regs, but couldn't find an exemption or anything for these small torches. Is there and AWS standard that I could check, or does someone know of an OSHA interpretation letter?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
