pressure deflagrations. Enardo utilizes a patented
(US Patent No. 5415233) element assembly that
dampens the high velocities and pressures associated
with deflagration and detonations while quenching the
flame front.
Designed with flanged connections, this arrestor allows
removal of the flame cell element for easy cleaning
and replacement without removing the arrestor
body from the pipe connection. Standard housing
construction is carbon steel or stainless steel. The
element is available in Stainless steel. Special material
and protective coating are available on request.
Principle of Operation
The high-pressure deflagration flame arrestor is
an enhanced version of the standard deflagration
flame arrestor, designed to stop flames in the low,
medium, and high pressure deflagration states. Flame
arrestor allows gas to pass though it but stops flame
in order to prevent a larger fire of explosion. Arrestor
prevents flame by absorbing and dissipating the heat
from flame as it attempts to travel through the spiral
wound crimped ribbon flame cells. These cells allow
maximum flow with maximum protection. See Figure 3.
