Explosion Prevention

Spark Detection and Extinguishing SystemsSpark Detection and Extinguishing Systems

Uses inferred sensors to detect sparks in the dust collector’s main dirty air inlet duct. Immediately upon spark detection, a water mist is sprayed into the duct to extinguish the spark.

 

 

Abort Gates

High Speed Abort Gates

Abort GatesDesigned to divert process air in the event of a deflagration. They are often tied into a spark detection system to trigger when an ignition source is detected. They do not react quickly enough to be NFPA compliant as an outlet isolation device. Its primary purpose is to divert burning debris and smoke from entering the building.

EIV Backdraft

Explosion Isolation Valves / Backdraft Damper

EIV BackdraftNFPA requires the installation of an explosion isolation device on all suction side ducts that transport material with a Kst value above zero.  Installing an Explosion Isolation Valve (EIV) will protect workers and facilities from the damaging effects of a baghouse or cartridge filter explosion.  Glacier Technology offers a wide variety of industrial dampers suited to a variety of heavy duty air control applications. Our dampers are available in corrosion resistant stainless steel construction, or high temperature heat resistant alloys.
