Explosion Venting

Solutions for High-Pressure, Low-Pressure and Negative-Pressure applications

Boss Products explosion vent panels meet all the essential health and safety requirements for an explosive atmosphere. In case of an explosion, the explosion vents are designed to evacuate pressure, flames, and dust, to a designated location away from people and equipment. A simple and efficient protection system — these highly rated explosion vents are made to resist depressions, during pneumatic unclogging cycles, for silos, hoppers, filters, and cyclones.

Capt-Air installs explosion venting solutions for high-pressure, low-pressure, and negative-pressure applications to evacuate pressure, flames, and dust.

VIGISPACE Explosion Vent Deflector EV-VS

When an outdoor explosion occurs, explosion vents open and release the explosion flame and pressure wave into the environment.

The VIGISPACE® Explosion Vent Deflector EV-VS limits the opening angle of the explosion vent and guides the explosion pressure wave, flames and heat into defined areas.

By decreasing the size of dangerous areas, the VIGISPACE® helps to reduce the safety zone to a minimum and increases usable operating space while providing optimum protection against explosions.

Flameless Explosion Vent VIGIFLAM

The Flameless Explosion Vent VIGIFLAM are rectangular explosion devices that combine a standard explosion panel with added protection to prevent flame from entering the environment. The Flameless Explosion Vents are certified to be suitable for indoor and outdoor applications.

The Flameless Explosion Vent VIGIFLAM eliminate the need for costly heavy duty piping that is required for exterior venting when a vessel is installed within the workspace. The integral standard explosion panel bursts during the initial explosion phase. Immediately thereafter, the flame and burnt dust exit the vessel and is contained by the VIGIFLAM flame arrestor. All Flameless Explosion Vent VIGIFLAM are designed with the ability to change the explosion panel without removing the flame arrestor assembly.

Boss Products’ technical engineering staff is dedicated to ensuring optimum design & product selection for every application.
