Introduction

Scope of the Manual

This manual provides specifications, installation 

and maintenance instructions and parts ordering 

information for the 8 Series high pressure 

deflagration flame arrestor.

Product Description

8 Series high pressure deflagration flame arrestors is 

designed to protect equipment against high velocity 

and pressure flame fronts inherent in applications 

beyond the performance range of a standard flame 

arrestor but not yet to the detonation phase of flame 

development and provide an economical alternative 

to a detonation arrestor. The 8 Series high pressure 

deflagration flame arrestor is designed to surpass 

standard flame arrestors for applications that 

include extended lengths of pipe with one bend, 

elevated operating pressures and extended flame 

stabilization on the flame cell element. The arrestors 

are bi-directional and can stop low, medium and high
