Flame Arrester

Flame Arrester Vs Detonation Flame Arrester

Flame Arrester

- Prevents flame propagation into storage tank or vent piping from external source as required by NFPA & OSHA Standards.

•- Used where product may be heated above its flash point

•

- Used where product flash point is below 100 ºF

•

- Protects storage tanks & process from external ignition

•

•- Provides a passive safety mechanism to prevent tank

ignition & explosion

•- Protects costly upstream equipment & processes

- Approved fro NEC Group D Vapors or Gases

- Size: 2" through 60"

- FM approved

Detonation Arrester

- Designed to withstand high velocity and high pressure flame fronts that may transition into detonations in long or complex vapor piping systems .

•- Required in Marine vapor recovery systems per Federal Regulation 42 CFR Part 154 Final Rule

•- Recommended in vapor collection systems per NFPA 30 & API recommended practices

•- DFAs are designed to stop deflagrations, stable detonations and over driven detonations

•- Protects both upstream & downstream processes with bi-directional capabilities

- •Replaces misapplied flame arresters in vapor piping systems

- Designed to withstand & extinguish stable & overdriven detonation flame fronts

•- Isolates tanks in closed venting systems from a detonation or explosion in another tank or ignition source

•- Withstands high pressure shock waves and quenches detonations

•- Approved for NEC Group C and D Vapors or Gases

•- Sizes: 2” through 24”

•- U.S. Coast Guard Accepted and FM approved
