Model No: FADIL
ERARDO make Inline Deflagration Flame Arrestor (Flame Arrestor or Fire Arrestor) is proposed for pipeline installation close to the source of any potential ignition source by minimizing flame speed and the development of an explosive pressure.
The flame quenching element is designed to be 1.5 times or higher the area of the pipe in which it is installed, and is assembled between two flanged.
The element comprises a tightly rolled scroll or scrolls of crimped stainless steel ribbon to form passages through which the vapour passes.

How Inline Flame Arresters Work
Flame Quenching:
- The arrester contains elements (usually metal plates or screens) that have numerous small passages.
- These elements cool and dissipate the heat of the flame, reducing the temperature below the ignition point.
- As the flame front encounters the arrestor, it loses the energy required to propagate.
Heat Absorption:
- The metal elements absorb and conduct away the heat from the flame front.
- The structure of these elements is designed to maximize the surface area for heat dissipation.
Pressure Drop:
- While they prevent flame propagation, flame arresters also introduce a pressure drop in the system.
- The design must balance flame arresting capabilities with acceptable pressure losses.
Applications
- Fuel Storage Tanks: Prevents flames from entering storage tanks containing flammable liquids.
- Ventilation Systems: Used in vent lines to prevent flames from traveling back into the system.
- Gas Pipelines: Installed in pipelines carrying flammable gases to prevent the spread of fire.
- Chemical Processing: Protects reactors and other process equipment from flame flashbacks.
- Marine Applications: Utilized on ships to prevent fires from spreading through venting systems.

Robust Explosion ProtectionThis flame arrestor offers critical safety by stopping flame propagation in explosive gas or vapor environments, making it indispensable for pipelines, tank vents, and process lines in hazardous industries. The explosion proof cylindrical design operates passively to prevent incidents without requiring external power.
Versatile Installation and Custom OptionsAdaptable for both flanged and threaded connections (ANSI/BS/DIN/BSP/NPT), the flame arrestor can be installed inline horizontally or vertically, accommodating pipeline diameters from 2 to 12 inches or custom sizes. It meets specific site requirements with a range of body materials and epoxy powder coated finishes.
Low Maintenance & Long Service LifeFeaturing easy, tool-accessible inspection and cleaning, the stainless steel mesh ensures reliable performance and minimal downtime. Its corrosion-resistant construction and quick removal element enhance durability, making it suitable for frequent operational checks without specialized training.
FAQ's of Inline Deflagration Flame Arrestor:
Q: How does the Inline Deflagration Flame Arrestor function in explosion protection systems?
A: The flame arrestor utilizes a stainless steel mesh element to quench flames, effectively stopping flame propagation through explosive gas or vapor pipelines. This passive design ensures automatic protection in the event of a deflagration, preventing explosions from spreading downstream.
Q: What are the recommended installation locations for this flame arrestor?
A: This device is ideal for use on storage tanks, in gas and vapor pipelines, vent lines, process lines, and at points where explosion protection is critical-such as chemical plants, refineries, and industrial facilities handling flammable gases.
Q: When should maintenance and inspection of the flame arrestor be performed?
A: Regular maintenance is advised according to operational frequency and environmental conditions. The quick removal element allows for easy access, so routine checks for clogging or corrosion should be performed, especially in harsh or high-usage environments.
Q: Where can this flame arrestor be installed within the pipeline?
A: It can be mounted inline, either horizontally or vertically, directly in the pipe run. The bi-directional capability means it can be fitted in locations where flow direction may change, providing flexibility in varied pipeline designs.
Q: What are the benefits of choosing a stainless steel or carbon steel body option?
A: Stainless steel 304/316 provides superior corrosion resistance in harsh, chemical-laden environments, while carbon steel offers a cost-effective option for less aggressive applications. Both deliver structural integrity and durability for long-term operation.
Q: How customizable is the flame arrestor to suit specific project requirements?
A: The flame arrestor is available in sizes from 2 inch to 12 inch, with custom diameters upon request. It also supports multiple end-connection standards and can be finished with specialized coatings as per client specification, ensuring optimal fit and protection for each application.
