In plants producing organic products considerable volumes of fine dust are permanently present. In the beginning it can be considered this fine dust is only combustible. However, enriched with oxygen this combustible material transforms into a highly explosive mixture.
If an ignition source is then introduced resulting in an explosion and fire, this will cause enormous consequential damage for plant and personnel. Acc. to ATEX directive 94/9/EG manufacturers are obliged to reduce the risk of a dust explosion. Explosion protection by certified explosion panels provides a cost effective and good engineered solution. i.e.: If a dust explosion occurs the explosion pressure is reduced to a harmless level within the plant. The EX-GO-VENT incorporating bionic structures guarantees extraordinary stability suitable for most standard applications. The flat, single layer explosion panel has a perfect venting efficiency due to its low specific weight. Unlike other manufacturers’ options, the EX-GO-VENT is NOT torque dependent during installation. Typically, mounting is made directly on roofs, bulkheads or round shaped equipment and provides a guaranteed leak-tight sealing against arduous weather conditions or other water ingress.
