In Line Flame Arrestor

The compact design of the in-line deflagration flame arrester makes it the state of the art technology for installation in pipes. The devices are installed with minimal distance to the burner to prevent flash-back into the fuel feed lines.  When installing the deflagration flame arrester, make sure that the distance between potential ignition sources and the location of the installed device, does not exceed the L/D ratio (pipe length/pipe diameter), for which the device was approved. As per EN ISO 16852 the L/D ratio is limited to (L/D) max ≤ 50 for deflagration flame arresters of explosion groups IIA and IIB3 (NEC groups D and C (MESG ≥ 0.65 mm)) and to (L/D)max ≤ 30 for explosion group IIC (NEC group B).
