Saf-t-Flap™ explosion isolation valve

Advantages

• Designed to minimize pressure drop and therefore ongoing cost of ownership.

• Valve shuts and latches closed to prevent flame and pressure propagation.

• Certified for use with piping elbows between protected equipment and the valve.

• Certified for organic, synthetic and metallic dusts.

• Self-cleaning design.

• ATEX certification

The Saf-t-Flap™ explosion isolation valve provides effective mechanical isolation preventing dust explosions travelling upstream within the piping systems leading to process equipment such as dust collectors, filters, and cyclones. The valve can be used in a ‘normally open’ configuration or a ‘normally closed’ configuration, with a very low pressure drop in both application conditions. On filter media dust collectors, the Saf-t-Flap can be placed on both the inlet and outlet ducts to prevent explosion propagation both upstream and downstream of the dust collector. In addition to flap style valves, BS&B also supplies float style and knife gate valves.
