The domed, single layer explosion vent is suitable for use in processes with medium vacuum or overpressure (up to 70 % of min. response pressure (pstat)) and slight pressure cycling. It is particularly suitable for vessels with pneumatic filling equipment and for filters and sieves with strong vibration. The standard bursting pressure is 0.1 bar at 22 °C (71.6 °F).
Advantages
• The domed construction provides high stability and pressure cycling resistance.
• Quick and easy installation as EDP is torque independent. No additional counter frame required.
• Significant space savings due to the integrated gasket and tensioning frame in the REMBE® explosion vent.
Mechanism
When pressure rises, the EDP explosion vent opens and releases pressure out of the vessel into the surrounding area.
