Function and Description

High-Tech Coating of the Housing

The In-Line Detonation Flame Arresters Type PROTEGO® DA-SB-PTFE are the latest generation of Flame Arresters and are distinguished by its unique resistance to adhesive and corrosive media. The use of fluoroplastics as a high-tech housing Corps A housing is a solid shell, which surrounds a content, either protecting the content from external influences, or protecting the environment from the content. coating Revêtement Coating is the application of a firmly adhering layer of shapeless material to the surface of a workpiece. and as solid material for the Flame Arrester element is unique throughout the world. The speed of incoming detonations is highly reduced by the effective shock absorber Amortisseur de choc A shock absorber is a device that reduces the kinetic energy of a detonation. (1) and result in an equal pressure distribution across the FLAMEFILTER® surface. This improves the flame extinction in the narrow gaps of the original PTFEFLAMEFILTER® (3).

Main Component – PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit

The devices are symmetrical and offer bidirectional flame arresting for deflagrations and stable detonations. The arrester essentially consists of two coated housing parts (4), two coated shock absorbers and the PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit (2) in the center. The PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit is modular and consists of several FLAMEFILTER® discs and spacers firmly held in a FLAMEFILTER® cage Cage d'éléments arrête-flammes The FLAMEFILTER® cage is a housing for a FLAMEFILTER® set. . The number of FLAMEFILTER® discs and their gap size depends on the arrester‘s conditions of use.

For Explosion Group IIA

The Detonation Arrester PROTEGO® DA-SB-PTFE can be used for explosion group IIA (NFPA group D). The standard design is approved at an operating temperature Operating temperature Temperature reached when the equipment is operating under design conditions. up to +60°C / 140°F. The maximum allowable operating pressure Pression de service Operating pressure is the pressure existing at normal operating conditions within the system being protected. depends on nominal diameter (DN) and nominal size Diamètre nominal The nominal size is an alphanumeric designation of size for components in a piping system, used for reference purposes, comprising the letters DN followed by a dimensionless integer that is indirectly related to the physical size of the bore or outside diameter of the connections, expessed in millimeters. (NG) and amounts to a maximum of 2.4 bar / 34.8 psi absolute (for DN50 / 2” see table 3). EU conformity according to the currently valid ATEX directive. Approvals according to other national/international regulations on request.
