Hydrogen tube explosion-proof flame arrester is a kind of important safety equipment specially used in hydrogen pipeline system, its main function is to prevent hydrogen flame from spreading in the pipeline, so as to avoid possible explosion accidents.
The hydrogen pipe explosion-proof flame arrester is a device that prevents the flame from spreading in the hydrogen pipe through a specially designed flame arrester element. It uses the small channels or gaps of the fire blocking elements to divide the flame into countless small flame flows, and through the heat transfer effect and the wall effect to quickly cool down and extinguish the flame flow, so as to protect the pipeline system from the threat of flame spread.
Flame Arrestor for Hydrogen Pipe Detonation Proof Working principle：
Flame segmentation: When the flame enters the flame arrester, it is divided into many small flame streams by the small channels or gaps of the fire blocking elements.
Heat transfer: When these small flame flows through the channel or gap, they exchange heat with the material of the fire blocking element, resulting in a rapid drop in flame temperature.
Wall effect: As the flame flow is further dispersed and cooled, its energy is gradually depleted, and eventually it is completely extinguished in the channel of the fire blocking element. In addition, the wall effect also reduces the chance of collisions between free radicals and reactive molecules, further reducing the possibility of flame propagation.
Hydrogen tube explosion-proof flame arrester is widely used in industrial fields involving hydrogen transmission and storage, such as hydrogen stations, hydrogen refueling stations, chemical plants, oil refineries, etc. In these cases, due to the flammable and explosive characteristics of hydrogen, once leakage or accidental ignition occurs, it may cause serious fire and explosion accidents. Therefore, the installation of hydrogen tube explosion-proof flame arrester in these occasions is one of the important measures to ensure production safety.
