DonadonSDD DCD rupture discs are composite conventional discs formed by three parts:
a slotted, perforated metal part
a seal membrane (usually in PTFE but also available in many other metallic or non-metallic materials)
a protection section
It is excellent for use with gas and liquids in static conditions and excellent for low pressures.
DCD discs react to excessive pressure with total opening in a few milliseconds without fragmentation. They are therefore recommended for valve protection. Supports may be provided for vacuum or counter-pressure protection.
Composite DonadonSDD rupture discs may also be used for simultaneous protection from pressure and vacuum.
