Explosion Suppression
Plant components like silos, mills, filters, collectors, mixers or dryers, in which combustible dusts or bulks are processed, conveyed or stored are hazardous in case of sufficient fine dust. If ignition sources cannot reliably excluded constructive and effcient explosion protection solutions are required.
With the use of the Q-Bic® surpression system the starting explosion is rapidly detected by the redundant p-RED detectors and the explosion flame is extinguished due to the promt blowing out of dry powder in the endangered area. It extinguishes the explosion at the point of ignition. The explosion cannot be discharged to the outside atmosphere. Q-Bic® is especially suitable for applications with toxicant materials, which might not be released in case of explosion.

Explosion Isolation
Plant components with constructive explosion protection regime are often interconnected via big pipes or rectangular shafts with further apparatus. If these pipes or shafts convey combustible dusts or bulks the single apparatus have to be isolated against explosions. This way the explosion spreading in further plant components is prevented as explosions are forwarded by flames but not by shock waves.
The Q-Bic® explosion isolation system extinguishes the flame front of the explosion which prevents the ignition of the flame jet with pre-compressed pressure in further apparatus. Compared with other systems, e.g. explosion barrier slide valves, the operational cost are considerably lower.
