Description

Storage tanks & other vessels containing flammable and explosive chemicals and mixture are prevalent in chemical process industries plants. Flame Arrester is installed on such equipment to prevent potential hazard associated with flammable and explosives materials. Flame Arrester can stop the spread of a fire, limit the spread of an explosive event, protect potentially explosive mixtures from igniting, and confine a fire within an enclosed, controlled location.

A flame arrester works by forcing a flame front through very narrow channels (MESG) has travels through the device, but the passages are so narrow that the flame can no longer be maintained.
