Flame-free explosion venting device for the dust collector explosion vent in the winemaking workshop.

A flameless explosion venting device is a safety apparatus designed to protect equipment and personnel by automatically shutting down equipment or pipelines in the event of an explosion or fire, preventing the spread of flames or expansion of the explosion. Its working principle involves detecting changes in gas pressure and temperature inside pipelines or equipment to determine the risk of explosion or fire. If a hazard is confirmed, the device immediately shuts down the equipment or pipeline while releasing pressure to safeguard both equipment and personnel.

Working Principle of Flameless Explosion Venting Device for Dust Collector Venting Port in Brewery WorkshopWorking Principle:

The flameless venting device consists of two parts—an explosion venting panel and a flame quenching module. The explosion venting panel responds to rapid increases in deflagration pressure, immediately opening to reduce pressure. When the expanding fireball passes through the open venting panel, it is intercepted by the flame quenching module. The stainless steel precision mesh, supported by a frame, acts as a three-dimensional flame trap, extinguishing the flame and preventing its propagation, thereby avoiding secondary or multiple explosions. The flame quenching module eliminates deflagration flames, reduces the temperature of hot gases, and captures both burning and unburned dust passing through the open venting panel.

Simultaneously, pressure waves or noise generated by production equipment are significantly reduced. As flames pass through the mesh flame arrestor, heat exchange occurs between the arrestor and the flames, rapidly cooling the high-temperature flames, venting pressure and smoke, while further reducing pressure waves or noise from production equipment.

Application Fields:

Widely used in industries such as grain, metallurgy, chemicals, power, light industry, tobacco, pharmaceuticals, machining, and solid waste treatment. Applicable equipment includes cyclone separators, bag dust collectors, dust collectors, cartridge filters, pneumatic conveying systems, rod or ball mills, bucket elevators, dryers and ovens, roller mills, and buildings.

With increasingly stringent environmental inspections, safety has become a major concern. In the past, explosion venting panels were commonly installed on dust collectors to release overpressure caused by dust explosions. However, such installations on indoor equipment are not permitted by safety regulations because they endanger surrounding personnel and equipment. The pressure waves and flames from explosions may cause secondary or multiple explosions, posing risks. Therefore, relying solely on explosion venting panels for dust collectors is unreliable. We recommend using flameless explosion venting + isolation technology (a cost-effective solution) or suppression + isolation technology to ensure production safety.

There are three main methods for dust explosion protection: venting, isolation, and suppression.

Venting: Releases explosion pressure in advance through a pressure relief device to protect equipment from damage.

Isolation: Uses an explosion isolation valve to block the explosion and prevent flame propagation.

Suppression: Detection devices identify sparks and trigger fire suppression systems to instantly extinguish flames, preventing explosions.
