New bursting disc gives better pressure safety
The new Uni-Guard from Elfab is a scored reverse bursting disc ideal for very low pressure applications in aggressive process environments.
Bursting discs are high precision pressure relief devices used throughout the processing industries.
Designed to burst at a specific pressure, they prevent potentially dangerous pressure build-up and are now an essential safety component in process plants.
Integral Flo-Tel has two features that make it innovative.
Firstly, the electronic sensor that detects when the bursting disc ruptures is integral within the disc holder - the significance being that it does not need replacing every time a disc bursts.
Secondly, it is Ex-certified, allowing it to be used at all levels of potentially explosive atmospheres, right up to Zone 0.
Compatible with most of the Elfab bursting disc range, Integral Flo-Tel can also be used for relief valve isolation.
In addition, custom-engineered versions can be produced to meet specific customer requirements.
