Protection of Flares
Flare systems require reliable protection against flame flashback Flashback Phenomenon occurring in a flammable mixture of air and gas when the local velocity of the combustible mixture becomes less than the flame velocity, causing the flame to travel back to the point of mixture. , particularly where combustible vapors are routed between tanks, headers, and flare stacks. In OEM flare assemblies, PROTEGO® components as Pressure Vacuum Relief Valves Pressure and vacuum relief valve A pressure and vacuum relief valve is a pressure equalization valve for impermissible pressure and vacuum in a closed system. , Deflagration Deflagration Explosion propagating at subsonic velocity (EN 1127-1:1997). and Detonation Detonation Explosion propagating at supersonic velocity and characterized by a shock wave (EN 1127-1: 1997). Flame Arresters Flame arrester Device fitted to the opening of an enclosure, or to the connecting pipe work of a system of enclosures, and whose intended function is to allow flow but prevent the transmission of a flame. are integrated at defined points in the system to control flame propagation and pressure effects.

Protection of Fans and Blowers
PROTEGO® OEM Flame Arresters are integrated into fan and blower assemblies to interrupt flame transmission while maintaining functional flow characteristics. OEM solutions for fans and blowers include Flame Arresters designed specifically for use with vacuum Vacuum Vacuum is the pressure in an enclosed space that is lower than the ambient pressure. pumps, compressors, and blower systems. These units are installed upstream or downstream of rotating equipment as required by the application and are supplied as part of a complete, tested equipment configuration.
Protection of Vacuum Pumps
PROTEGO® OEM Flame Arrester Units are incorporated directly into vacuum pump assemblies. Integrated solutions include Flame Arrester Units installed on inlet and outlet connections of vacuum pumps, compressors, and blowers. These configurations provide consistent protection across operating modes while remaining compatible with OEM equipment layouts and service access requirements.
