Protection Against Atmospheric Deflagrations
The PROTEGO® BE/AD End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester Deflagration flame arrester Flame arrester designed to prevent the transmission of a deflagration. It can be an end-of-line flame arrester or an in-line flame arrester. provides protection against atmospheric deflagrations. The device Device A device is a pipe component that influences the media flow by opening, closing, or partially shutting off the flow channel or by dividing or mixing the media flow. is usually installed on vent lines of small vessels and plant equipment Equipment Machines, appliances, fixed or mobile devices, control parts and accessories, and warning and prevention systems, whether separate or combined, intended for the generation, transfer, storage, measurement, control, and conversion of energy, and for the processing of materials, which have their own potential source of ignition and may cause an explosion. which are not pressurized. For safe application, it is important that an endurance burning Endurance burning Stabilized burning for an unlimited time. situation can be excluded. So typically, it is installed on vents lines which discharge vapor for a short time period. The device is the ideal solution for preventing flame transmission from atmospheric deflagration Deflagration Explosion propagating at subsonic velocity. into the vessel Vessel Container or structural envelope in which materials are processed, treated or stored. or plant.
Main Component – PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit
The PROTEGO® BE/AD consists of the housing Housing A housing is a solid shell, which surrounds a content, either protecting the content from external influences, or protecting the environment from the content. (1), a weather hood Weather hood A weather hood is a cover to protect the internal components of a device from environmental influences. (2), and the PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit PROTEGO® flame arrester unit The PROTEGO® flame arrester unit is the main component of a flame arrester. It prevents flame propagation. (3). The device is equipped with a metal weather hood. The FLAMEFILTER® gap size will depend on the device’s intended use.
For Explosion Groups IIA to IIC
Specifying the operating conditions, such as the temperature, pressure Pressure (gauge pressure) Pressure for which the value is equal to the algebraic difference between the absolute pressure and the atmospheric pressure. , explosion Explosion Abrupt oxidation or decomposition reaction producing an increase in temperature, pressure, or in both simultaneously. group, and the composition of the fluid, enables PROTEGO® to select the best End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester for your application. The PROTEGO® BE/AD Series End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester is available for substances from explosion Explosion Abrupt oxidation or decomposition reaction producing an increase in temperature, pressure, or in both simultaneously. groups IIA to IIC (NEC groups D to B). The standard design can be used with an operating temperature Operating temperature Temperature reached when the equipment is operating under design conditions. of up to +60°C / 140°F. EU conformity according to the currently valid ATEX directive. Approvals according to other national/international regulations on request.
