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 and stabilized flames which can burn for a very long time. This device is specifically applied to vent lines of decommissioned underground mines. Other areas of application are biogas, landfill gas and sewage gas. The device is installed on suction and vent lines, with the goal to prevent flame transmission caused by

Main component - PROTEGO® flame arrester
The PROTEGO® LH/EB consists of a

Housing
A housing is a solid shell, which surrounds a content, either protecting the content from external influences, or protecting the environment from the content.
(1), a weather hood (2) and the PROTEGO® flame arrester unit (3). During normal operation, the metal weather hood is in a closed position. If a flame burns on the flame arrester element surface, the fusible link (5), located in a center position, will melt and an externally located weight will move the weather hood into the open position. The PROTEGO® flame arrester unit consists of a FLAMEFILTER® (4), which is installed in a
