The explosion-proof flame arrester for pipelines is a core safety device used in pipeline systems for transporting flammable and explosive gases or vapors, specifically designed to deal with detonation conditions (a more intense combustion form than deflagration). Its core function is to block the high-speed propagation of detonation waves and flames within the pipeline, prevent detonation waves from causing explosions of upstream and downstream equipment (such as storage tanks, reactors, and valves), and at the same time withstand the extreme pressure impact generated by detonation. It is the "ultimate explosion-proof defense line" for pipeline systems under high-risk working conditions.
Core function
1. Block the supersonic detonation flame and cut off the explosion spread path
- Special fireproof element structure
-The "quenching effect" is intensified
2. Withstand the pressure of detonation shock waves to prevent damage to the device itself
- Thick-walled shell design:
- Fixed reinforcement of flame arrestor components
- Pressure relief auxiliary design
3. Ensure the normal flow of the medium without affecting the pipeline conditions (foundation function)
- Low flow resistance optimization
- Bidirectional flame arrestor compatibility
- Resistant to medium corrosion
