what are deflagration and detonation arrestors
Critical Safety Solutions for Combustion Systems
When you’re working with flames, flammable gases, and other dangerous and explosive substances, you need safety measures in place to mitigate the risk of uncontrolled explosions.
Arrestors are one of those safety measures. They prevent flames from backtracking through fuel lines in your flares or enclosed combustion systems, causing costly damage to your equipment and severe injuries or even fatalities in your employees.
Types of Arrestors
Detonation Arrestors
Our detonation arrestors are your best option for preventing flashbacks at high or low speeds in your fuel lines and piping configurations. They’re approved by the US Coast Guard and are designed with a removable flame cell for easy maintenance and cleaning that improves the longevity of your equipment.
Combustion Air Flash Cells
Our combustion air flash cells, also known as firebox flame arrestors, protect air inlets in fired equipment from flame propagation while still allowing the air necessary to maintain combustion to enter the system.
Flame Arrestor
Our flame arrestors are a cost-effective option for protecting against flashbacks in low-pressure systems. We offer them in custom sizes and configurations, so they can easily integrate into and protect your system.
