Flame Arresters Protect Against Explosion

BS&B’s platform of flame arrester/relief vent products and services encompasses both pressure/vacuum relief devices and flame arresters, as well as combinations, all manufactured in accordance with API 2000, EN ISO 16852, NFPA 30 & 69

The product line provides practical solutions to explosion protection. Utilizing static dry flame arrester technology with spiral-wound crimped ribbon elements to absorb energy from the explosion and quench the flame, the arresters are used to protect tanks, piping and other systems in plants and refineries against deflagrations and detonations. The arresters embody a compact and light-weight design, and variable element diameters enhance flow versus differential pressure within the same nominal connection diameter. Flame arresters are used as secondary protection against explosions by preventing the transmission of flame into piping and equipment within plants, containing flammable gas or steam-air mixtures of flammable liquids. These autonomous safety systems prevent flashback from explosions reaching the protected side of the arrester while allowing flow of vapor through them.
