In-line Unstable Detonation Flame Arresters – UCB
UCB SeriesGas Groups: C | IIB1, IIB2 & IIB3
The Protectoseal UCB Series In-line Unstable Detonation Flame Arresters are designed to prevent the propagation of gas or vapor explosions in pipelines under the most severe condition of unstable detonation. This type of arrester is specified for use in pipeline systems where the distance between the source of ignition and arrester is significant and/ or where detonations are also possible due to pipe roughness, bends, section changes and obstructions.
