Flame Protection and Arrestors
Protection from potentially catastrophic events
Selection of an appropriate in-line flame arrestor for confined applications depends on how intense the flame in a pipe is expected to be, in terms of velocity and pressure.There are 7 distinct phases which a flame may reach if the pipe is long enough and the combustion is fast and energetic enough.
The arrestor absorbs heat from the flame as it travels through narrow passages with walls of metal (called a Flame Cell Element).
