LDA-F

The PROTEGO® LDA-F Series of Liquid Detonation Arresters was developed for storage tanks filling and drain lines that are not continuously filled with product Produto Includes equipment, protective systems, devices, components and combinations of these. and sometimes contain a combustible mixture. The integrated siphon protection (1) with PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit (2) additionally prevents the liquid, in which the lines are immersed, from being siphoned off while the container is being drained. The PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit consists of several FLAMEFILTER® discs (3) and spacers firmly held in a FLAMEFILTER® casing FLAMEFILTER® casing Enclosure for FLAMEFILTER® including insert rings. (4). The number of FLAMEFILTER® discs and their gap size depends on the arrester’s intended use.

When a highly accelerated pipe deflagration Deflagração Explosion propagating at subsonic velocity (EN 1127-1:1997). or detonation Detonação Explosion propagating at supersonic velocity and characterized by a shock wave (EN 1127-1: 1997). occurs, the combustion pressure and flame propagation speed are substantially reduced by the design, converted into a low-energy deflagration, and then stopped by the remaining immersion liquid and the PROTEGO® Flame Arrester.
