Product Introduction of Flame Arrester
A flame arrester is a safety device used to prevent the spread of flames when explosions occur in pipelines, equipment, or containers filled with flammable gases, liquid vapors, or dust. By blocking the spread of flames, it avoids the expansion of explosion accidents, thereby protecting the safety of personnel and the integrity of equipment and facilities.

Working Principle
Mechanical Flame Arrester Principle: Inside the flame arrester, special flame-arresting elements are usually used, such as metal meshes, corrugated plates, or ceramics. These elements have tiny channels and pores. When the flame passes through, the energy of the flame is dispersed and absorbed. At the same time, because the size of the channels is smaller than the critical diameter of flame propagation, the flame cannot continue to spread, thus achieving the purpose of flame arrest.
Heat Dissipation Principle: The structural design of the flame arrester can effectively dissipate the heat of the flame, causing the temperature of the flame to drop rapidly during the propagation process, dropping below the ignition point of the combustible mixture, and thus extinguishing the flame.
Product Features
High-efficiency Flame Arresting: It can reliably prevent the spread of flames in various flammable media, with extremely high flame-arresting efficiency, ensuring the effective prevention of the spread of explosion accidents in dangerous situations.
Corrosion Resistance: It is manufactured using high-quality corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel, copper alloys, etc. It can adapt to different working environments, including situations with corrosive gases or liquids, and ensure long-term stable performance.
Low Pressure Loss: On the premise of ensuring the flame-arresting performance, a reasonable flow channel structure is designed to minimize the pressure loss when the medium passes through the flame arrester, without affecting the normal operation of the system.
Compact Structure: It has a small volume and light weight, making it easy to install and maintain. It can be conveniently integrated into various pipeline systems or equipment without taking up too much space.
Safe and Reliable: After strict testing and certification, it complies with relevant international and domestic safety standards, such as ISO, API, GB, etc., providing users with reliable safety protection.
Application Fields
Petrochemical Industry: Widely used in various flammable gas and liquid pipelines in the fields of petroleum refining and chemical production, such as crude oil transportation pipelines, gasoline pipelines, liquefied petroleum gas pipelines, ethylene pipelines, etc., as well as the inlet and outlet pipelines of various reactors, storage tanks and other equipment to prevent the occurrence of fire and explosion accidents.
Natural Gas Industry: During the extraction, transportation, and storage of natural gas, the flame arrester is an important device for ensuring safety. It can be installed in places such as wellheads, gathering pipelines, and gas filling stations to prevent explosion accidents caused by natural gas leakage.
Power Industry: It is used in the fuel systems, hydrogen systems, etc. of power plants to ensure the safety of these flammable media during transportation and use, and prevent fires and explosions from damaging power equipment.
Pharmaceutical, Paint, Coating and Other Industries: There are a large number of flammable and explosive organic solvents in these industries. The flame arrester can be used in related storage and transportation equipment to prevent fire and explosion accidents and ensure production safety.
Technical Parameters
Specifications and Dimensions: Flame arresters of various specifications can be provided according to different pipeline diameters and installation requirements. The common diameter range varies from DN15 to DN600.
Working Pressure: It can adapt to different working pressure ranges, generally from normal pressure to dozens of MPa, specifically depending on the product model and design.
Working Temperature: It is suitable for different temperature environments. Usually, it can work stably within the range of - 40°C to + 400°C. Products with higher or lower temperature ranges can be provided under special requirements.
Flame Arresting Performance: After professional testing, it can effectively prevent the propagation of specific types and intensities of flames, ensuring safety performance under various dangerous working conditions.
