Maintenance and Cost Advantages
The PROTEGO® DR/ES In-Line Detonation Flame Arrester has been used for decades in industrial plant construction because its right angle design offers advantages towards maintenance and costs in comparison to most straight designs.
Main Component – PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit
Once a detonation enters the device Appareil A device is a pipe component that influences the media flow by opening, closing, or partially shutting off the flow channel or by dividing or mixing the media flow. , energy is absorbed from the detonation shock wave by the integrated shock absorber Amortisseur de choc A shock absorber is a device that reduces the kinetic energy of a detonation. (1) before the flame is extinguished in the narrow gaps of the FLAMEFILTER® (3). The PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit (2) consists of several FLAMEFILTER® discs and spacers firmly held in the FLAMEFILTER® cage Cage d'éléments arrête-flammes The FLAMEFILTER® cage is a housing for a FLAMEFILTER® set. (4). The gap size and number of FLAMEFILTER® discs are determined by the operating data of the mixture flowing in the line (explosion group, pressure, temperature). This device is approved for explosion groups from IIA to IIB3 (NEC group D to C MESG ≥ 0.65 mm).
Many Individual Certifications
The standard design is approved at an operating temperature Operating temperature Temperature reached when the equipment is operating under design conditions. up to +60°C / 140°F and an absolute operating pressure Pression de service Operating pressure is the pressure existing at normal operating conditions within the system being protected. up to 1.2 bar / 17.4 psi. Devices with special approvals can be obtained for higher pressures and higher temperatures upon request. EU conformity according to the currently valid ATEX directive. Approvals according to other national/international regulations on request.
Dimensions
To select the nominal size Diamètre nominal The nominal size is an alphanumeric designation of size for components in a piping system, used for reference purposes, comprising the letters DN followed by a dimensionless integer that is indirectly related to the physical size of the bore or outside diameter of the connections, expessed in millimeters.

Flow Capacity Chart
The flow capacity charts have been determined with a calibrated and TÜV certified flow capacity test rig. Volume flow V in (m³/h) and CFH refer to the standard reference conditions of air ISO 6358 (20°C, 1bar). For conversion to other densities and temperatures refer to Sec. 1: “Technical Fundamentals”.
The volume flow V in m³/h was determined with water according to DIN EN 60534 at a temperature Tn = 20°C and an atmospheric pressure pn = 1,013 bar, kinematic viscosity v = 10-6 m²/s
