Pipe Flame Arrester
Pipe flame arrester is a safety device used to stop the propagation of flames in pipelines carrying flammable gases or vapors.
. Pressure Drop: The drop in pressure caused by the arrester when gas or vapor flows through it, typically measured in millibars or psi.
. Certifications: Compliance with standards like ATEX, IECEx, or other relevant safety standards.
Overview
Key Parameters:
Material: Typically constructed from stainless steel, aluminum, or other corrosion-resistant materials.
Size: Diameter and length of the arrester, typically ranging from 1/2 inch to 12 inches or more.
Type: End-of-line or in-line flame arresters.
Maximum Operating Pressure: The maximum pressure at which the arrester can operate safely, usually specified in bar or psi.
Maximum Operating Temperature: The highest temperature at which the arrester can function without failure, specified in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Flow Rate: The maximum flow rate of gas or vapor through the arrester, usually given in cubic meters per hour (m³/h) or cubic feet per minute (CFM).
Explosion Group: Classification of gases and vapors the arrester is designed to handle, based on groups defined by standards such as ATEX or IEC.
