Características
Función y descripción
Protection Against Atmospheric Deflagrations
The PROTEGO® LH/AD-T End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester provides protection against flame transmission through atmospheric deflagration and short time burning on the flame arrester element. The device is typically installed on vent lines of vessels and plant equipment which are not pressurized. The device is equipped with a temperature sensor which immediately detects a flame on the FLAMEFILTER® surface.
Protection Against Short-Time Burning
After the flame is detected, a secondary measure, such as inerting or closing of a shut-off valve to block the vapor flow to the device, should activate within 60 seconds and extinguish the flame so that the system can operate safely. The device prevents flame transmission from short time burning and atmospheric deflagration into the vessel or plant.
Main Component – PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit
The PROTEGO® LH/AD-T consists of the housing (1), a weather hood (2), and the PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit (3). The device is equipped with a metal weather hood. The FLAMEFILTER® (4) gap size depends on the device’s intended use. Specifying the operating conditions, such as the temperature, explosion group, and the composition of the fluid, enables PROTEGO® to select the best End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester for your application.
For Explosion Groups IIA to IIC
The PROTEGO® LH/AD-T Series End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester is available for substances from explosion groups IIA to IIC (NEC groups D to B). The standard design can be used with an operating temperature of up to +60°C / 140°F. Devices with special approval for higher temperatures are available upon request. EU conformity according to the currently valid ATEX directive. Approvals according to other national/international regulations on request.

Diagrama de flujo volumétrico
Los diagramas de flujo volumétrico han sido determinados con un banco de pruebas de caudal calibrado y certifi - cado por TÜV. El flujo volumétrico V. en [m³/h] y el CFH se refi eren a las condiciones estándar de referencia de aire según ISO 6358 (20°C, 1bar). La conversión a otras densidades y temperaturas están referidas en el Vol. 1: “Fundamentos Técnicos”.
