FA-I

In the development of the PROTEGO® FA-I in-line deflagration flame arrester In-line deflagration flame arrester A deflagration flame arrester is designed to prevent the transmission of a deflagration. An in-line deflagration flame arrester is equipped with a pipe connection on both sides. , special effort was made to optimize the fluid dynamic flow characteristics. For a given flange connection size of the flame arrester, the FLAMEFILTER® size can be chosen for the most adequate flow capacity. When installing the deflagration Deflagration Explosion propagating at subsonic velocity (EN 1127-1:1997). flame arrester, make sure that the distance between potential ignition sources and location of the installed device does not exceed the L/D ratio (pipe length/pipe diameter) for which the device was tested (see table 4).

Specifying the operating conditions, such as the temperature, pressure, explosion group, and the composition of the fluid, enables PROTEGO® to select the best deflagration flame arrester for your application. The PROTEGO® FA-I series of deflagration flame arresters is available for substances of explosion groups IIA and IIB3 (NEC groups D and C (MESG ≥ 0.65 mm)). The standard design can be used with an operating temperature Operating temperature Temperature reached when the equipment is operating under design conditions. of up to +60°C / 140°F and an absolute operating pressure Operating pressure Operating pressure is the pressure existing at normal operating conditions within the system being protected. up to 1.1 bar / 15.9 psi. Devices with special approvals for higher pressures (see table 3) and higher temperatures are available upon request. EU conformity according to the currently valid ATEX directive. Approvals according to other national/international regulations on request.
