Detailed Product Description

Series 8350

Flame Arrestors prevent the passage of flames in storage vessels and along associated pipework systems and have applications in a wide range of industries including Petroleum and Petrochemicals, Gas, Marine and sewage treatment.

Installation.

Series 8350 Flame Arrestors should be mounted with the axis vertical and as close as possible to the potential source of ignition.  Series 8350 Flame Arrestors have been designed for fitting to the down-turned end of free vent pipes.

Construction

Series 8350 Flame Arrestor consists of a tube bank made up of spirally wound alternate layers of flat and corrugated stainless steel sheets, built around a solid core.  The tube bank offers a multiplicity of small holes parallel to the line of flow.  The tube element is retained between two flanged end sections and contained within an outer shell.  Flame arrestor can be fitted with a weather hood.

Features

Crimped Ribbon Element Design

The corrugated crimped ribbon design of the Series 8350 Flame Arrestor element enables it to be manufactured to very close tolerances and hence can be efficiently size selected to uit the widest range of applications and flow parameters.  Pressure drop across the Flame Arrestor is very low and hence it is suitable for high gas flow rates.
