Flameless explosion venting from BS&B
The UK division of BS&B Safety Systems has announced a new range of flameless explosion venting devices. Specifically intended for use with dust collectors, bins and bucket elevators, the R-IQR™ series intercepts, quenches and retains all flame and burning materials, preventing them from hazardous release into the surrounding environment. It will be exhibited at next month’s Achema on Stand B86, Hall 9.1.
It comprises three parts: an explosion panel, bursting sensor and a quench module. The stainless steel explosion panel forms the interface with the protected process and a range of construction options are available. The panel is certified to burst at a predetermined activation pressure and will open instantly at the inception of an explosion. The quench module consists of layered stainless steel mesh that absorbs and dissipates heat and pressure as flame, burning materials and hot gas pass through it. The R-IQR also acts as a vacuum breaker by allowing free entry of cool air into the protected vessel to create equilibrium. All this occurs within a fraction of a second. Eight sizes ranging from 170 x 470mm to 920x586mm venting area are available. The system is tested to EN1600:2011 – the only global standard dedicated to flameless venting devices. www.bsbsystems.com
