Function and Description
Highly Developed Pressure Relief Valve
The deflagration-proof and endurance burning-proof P/EB-E type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed

occurs. The PROTEGO® flame arrester unit is designed to achieve minimum pressure drop with maximum safety. The P/EB-E valve is available for substances of explosion group IIB1 (MESG ≥ 0.85 mm) and provides specific protection against deflagration and endurance burning of alcohol/air mixtures (such as ethanol/air).
Advanced manufacturing technology
The valve functions proportional, so the set pressures should be selected in relation to the proportional behavior (such as a 10%, 40%, or 100% overpressure from the set pressure to the

Diaphragm
A diaphragm is a thin layer of material, which has a large surface area.
. The valve pallets are also available with a PTFE seal to prevent the valve pallets from sticking when sticky substances are used and to enable the use of corrosive fluids. After the overpressure is released, the valve re-seats and provides a tight seal.
Many Individual Certifications
If the set pressure is exceeded, explosive gas/product vapor/air mixtures are released into the atmosphere. If this mixture ignites, the integrated PROTEGO® flame arrester unit (3) prevents flame transmission into the tank. If additional mixture continues to flow and stabilized burning occurs, the integrated flame arrester unit prevents

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.
