A Flame Arrester is a device which allows gas to pass through it but extinguishes a flame in order to prevent a larger fire or explosion. We offer numerous flame arresters which can be applied for different situations
Motherwell Tank Protection supply a wide range of Flame Arresters for tanks which includes end of line deflagration flame arresters and in-line deflagration flame arrester. All flame arresters are available in a range of sizes and metals giving you the most extensive range of flame arresters available to the storage tank industry all direct from the manufacturers
APPLICATION |
Our Flame arrestors are designed to be used in the bilk liquid storage industry either end of line or in conjunction with a PVRV unit and installed at the end of a pipeline or exit vent on a vessel. They allow for an unrestricted flow of gases into the atmosphere and clean air into the tank/pipe therefore preventing any possible atmospheric deflagration from entering the system. |
|
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION |
A Vent Combination unit is designed to be mounted with a PVRV and prevent an unconfined deflagration in the surrounding atmosphere from entering the pipe or system and is not suitable for preventing a flame from within the pipe or system igniting the surrounding area.
