BE/HK

For many years the PROTEGO® BE/HK End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester Arrête-flammes antidéflagration Flame arrester designed to prevent the transmission of a deflagration. It can be an end-of-line flame arrester or an in-line flame arrester. has been successfully used to protect vessels and process engineering apparatus which are not pressurized. The device Appareil A device is a pipe component that influences the media flow by opening, closing, or partially shutting off the flow channel or by dividing or mixing the media flow. provides protection against flame transmission through atmospheric deflagration Déflagration Explosion propagating at subsonic velocity (EN 1127-1:1997). and stabilized flames which can burn for very long time on the Flame Arrester Arrête-flammes 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. Element surface, so called endurance burning Endurance burning Stabilized burning for an unlimited time. . Main application area is on in- and out-breathing and vent lines, with the goal to prevent flame transmission caused by endurance burning or atmospheric deflagration from propagating into the vessel Récipient Container or structural envelope in which materials are processed, treated or stored. or plant.

Detailing the operating conditions such as the temperature, explosion Explosion Abrupt oxidation or decomposition reaction producing an increase in temperature, pressure, or in both simultaneously. group and the composition of the fluid, enables PROTEGO® to select the best End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester for your application. The PROTEGO® BE/HK Series End-of-Line Deflagration Flame Arrester is available for substances from explosion groups IIA to IIB3 (NEC groups D to C MESG ≥ 0.65 mm). In a modified design, this device is also available for Ethanol applications. The standard design can be used with operating temperature Operating temperature Temperature reached when the equipment is operating under design conditions. of up to +60°C / 140°F. Type-approved according to ATEX Directive as well as other international standards.
