ZCZGB-II Stainless Steel The Drawer Flame Arrester

Producdt Description

In Line Flame Arrester is mainly composed of shell and fire element. There are two kinds of commonly used metal mesh filter element and corrugated filter element. The metal mesh filter element is composed of stainless steel or copper mesh with a diameter of 0.23-0.315 mm and overlapping layers. In Line Flame Arrester in China usually use 16-22 mesh metal mesh with 4-12 layers.

The corrugated filter element is supported by stainless steel, copper-nickel alloy, aluminium or aluminium alloy. Corrugated flame retardant can prevent the fierce flame of deflagration, and can withstand the corresponding mechanical and thermal effects, flow resistance is small, easy to clean and replace.

Installation:

1. Remove all flange cover and discard all packaging materials.
2. Check the seat, the matching flange gasket on the seat surface. It must be clean, flat, scratch-free, corrosion-resistant, tool traces.
3. Check the gasket to ensure that the material is suitable forapplication.
4. Lubricate all studs and nuts with proper thread lubricant. If the fastener is a high temperature stainless steel material, a back-grabbing compound, such as molybdenum disulfide, is used.
5. Inside gasket of bolt ring.
6. Installing flange of Inline flame arrester shell to butt with flange of pipeline, attention should be paid to the position of lifting handle and top nut of In line flame arrester element to facilitate the removal of In line flame arrester elements in the future.

Technical Knowledge Base

Q1: What is the primary composition of the ZC-ZGB-II In-Line Flame Arrester?

A1: The ZC-ZGB-II is mainly composed of two parts: a heavy-duty outer shell and a specialized fire element (filter). The shell provides structural integrity, while the element quenches the flame by absorbing its thermal energy.

Q2: What is the difference between the Metal Mesh and Corrugated filter elements?

A2: The Corrugated element offers superior resistance to mechanical and thermal effects, making it ideal for fierce deflagration protection with low resistance. The Metal Mesh element (using 0.23-0.315mm wire) is a classic, multi-layered design (4-12 layers) often used for specific industrial gas applications.

Q3: Why is the “Drawer Type” design beneficial for my facility?

A3: Maintenance is simplified. Unlike traditional arresters that require complete pipeline disassembly, the drawer design allows you to pull out the fire element directly. This makes it incredibly easy to clean and replace, reducing system downtime.

Q4: What mesh size is standard for In-Line Flame Arresters in China?

A4: Most industrial applications in China utilize a 16-22 mesh configuration. Our ZC-ZGB-II complies with this, typically utilizing between 4 to 12 overlapping layers of stainless steel or copper mesh to ensure flame quenching.

Q5: Can the fire element withstand the thermal effects of a flash fire?

A5: Yes. Our elements are supported by materials like Copper-Nickel alloy and Stainless Steel, which are chosen specifically for their ability to maintain structural integrity under the high heat and pressure associated with deflagration.
