Page 1: ... arrestor provides protection against flame propagation in piping systems that are manifolded or have long run up distances These are typically used for extended pipe length or multiple pipe bend configurations to stop high pressures and flame velocities with detonations and overdriven detonations It also stops confined and unconfined low and high pressure deflagration The design is unique in the ...

Page 2: ...e Arrestor Performance Gas Group WARNING Methanol is classified as a Group D IIA vapor However our lab tests indicate that methanol exhibits characteristics unlike other Group D IIA vapors under certain conditions We therefore recommend that an arrestor rated for Group C IIB3 vapors be specified for methanol service The type of gas in the system determines its gas grouping and therefore predetermi...
