Spark arrestors 

  • Prevent dangerous flying sparks
  • Approved for explosive environments
  • DNV-certified
  • Purely mechanical spark arrestor using static blades or other flow deflectors for lifelong functional reliability
  • Spark arrestors can also be integrated into silencers

Applications:

  • Exhaust systems for diesel and gas-powered engines
  • Vacuum pumps
  • Compressors
  • Petrochemical plants
  • Cargo vessels carrying gaseous loads
  • Drilling platforms

Technical data:

  • Standard design in steel, but other variations are also possible (e.g. stainless steel)
  • Recommended gas velocity 20 to 50 m/s, depending on the permissible back pressure
  • Can be installed in various positions; the tank must point downward
  • Installation alignment: horizontal and vertical
  • Separation efficiency
    • Particle size 0.5 mm = 100%
    • Particle size 0.2 mm =   99%
    • Particle size 0.1 mm =   95%
