Is this a flame arrester or a check valve? Does the flame arrester on the outlet pipeline of the hydrogen compressor have a check valve function?

Is this a flame arrester or a check valve? Does the flame arrester on the outlet pipeline of the hydrogen compressor have a check valve function? The airtight valve is leaking at the middle; it can no longer be sealed properly

Isn’t it written that it’s a check valve? The flame arrester does not have the function of a check valve, but it does serve as a kind of filter.

Yeah. . ZHF, check valves and flame arrestors are generally much thicker than pipes

It has a somewhat similar appearance to a flame arrester, but it’s certain that a check valve should be installed at the compressor outlet as per the process piping requirements. It is not related to the venting of flammable gases at high altitudes or fuel gas pipelines, so flame arresters are generally not used in such cases
