EXPLOSION PROOF IN-LINE FLAME ARRESTER

The Inline flame arrester is designed, manufactured and tested according to API 2000 and EN 12874.
The unit are passive devices with no moving parts.
They prevent the propagation of flame from the exposed side of the unit to the protected side by the use of a 316L stainless steel crimped metal ribbon type flame cell element.
This construction produces a matrix of uniform opening that are carefully constructed to quench the flame by absorbing the heat.
This provides an extinguishing barrier to the ignited vapor mixture.
The  flame arrestors have specifically designed heat transfer characteristics for slow moving flames and low medium pressure fronts (low to medium deflagration).
Inline flame arresters can be installed either vertically or horizontally within a designated distance from the potential ignition extras.
The standard flame cell is suitable for NEC group D or IEA IIA gases. Cells for other gas groups are avbailable as additional extras.
The flame arresters are available with either aluminum, nodular iron, cast steel, 304SSss, 316SS and 316LSS housings, Iron and steel housings are supplied epoxy coated.
