Each vehicle will have a sign "Emergency Shut OFF" located on the inside of the passenger door denoting the location of the valve. B. A safe perimeter of 100-ft was established around the vehicle. Since units were unable to stop the flow of CNG, the gas was allowed to burn, and units knew this could take up to a half hour depending on the size of the tanks. C. Because the flow of gas could not be stopped, E100 cooled the exposed CNG cylinders with a 2 ½" hose line to prevent catastrophic cylinder failure (high pressure gas rupture). D. When PRD's (Pressure Relief Device) have activated they will open and close as the pressure within the cylinder fluctuates. The resulting fire may go out and reignite several times.

B 100 [tissues] A. Locating the emergency shut off is straight forward. Each vehicle will have a sign "Emergency Shut OFF" located on the OUTSIDE of the VEHICLE denoting the location of the valve. C. Because the flow of gas could not be stopped, E100 ALLOWED THE FIRE TO BURN. Do not apply water to CNG cylinders as this may prevent the relief valve from activating. D. When PRD's (Pressure Relief Device) have activated they will NOT RESET AND CLOSE. The resulting fire may go out and reignite several times. THIS IS A NEW SECTION. RECOMMENDED READING.
