SNR non-return damper
The SNR non-return damper is a simple and cost-effective solution for isolation of an explosion origin by closing the ductwork and preventing further propagation of explosion to the remainder of the protected installation.
- Application: organic dust; metallic dust
- System internal ATEX zone: Zone 20, 21 and 22
- System external ATEX zone: Zone 21, 22
- Max. reduced explosion isolation pressure, Pred: 0.5 bar
- Max. Kst: 400 bar×m/s
- Max. operating pressure: 50,000 Pa
- Maximum air flow velocity: 30 m/s
- Min. installation distance from potential explosion origin:
- 1 m for dust with Kst < 200 bar m/s; 1 m for dust with Kst; 200 bar m/s;
- Max. installation distance from potential explosion origin: 2-3 m
- Material(s):
- Carbon steel, gauge 30/10 or 40/10
- AISI 304 grade stainless steel
- System pressure drop
- ≤ Ø 400: 10 mm H2O
- ≤ Ø 700: 16 mm H20
Optional accessories available on request:
- Open damper lock: engaged following an explosion trigger;
- Closed damper position sensor;
- Damper lock capacitative sensor: triggered by the flow of product.
The non-return dampers require a horizontal orientation and installation in line with a straight ductwork run. The ductwork diameter must be equal to that of both non-return damper ports.
