Installation of the exhaust pipe flame arrester
Thread Content
Is it necessary to install a separate flame arrester on the exhaust pipeline of each reactor and tank that contains explosive materials, or should a single flame arrester be installed on the main exhaust pipeline?
We have encountered the same problem. The advice given by experts from the China Chemical Industry Association was to install flame arresters before the exhaust gases from different solvent storage tanks in the tank area merge into the main pipeline, thereby preventing one tank from catching fire and spreading the fire to other tanks. {:9002:} For your reference.
An independent flame arrester needs to be installed on the exhaust pipeline of each reactor and tank involving explosive media. This is to ensure the safety of each device and prevent the spread of flames. If only one flame arrester is installed on the exhaust manifold, it may not be able to effectively prevent the risk of flame propagation between different devices. Therefore, it is recommended that each device’s exhaust pipe be equipped with an independent flame arrester. .
