Pressure and Solutions Intelligence
Elfab is an ISO 9001:2000 Certified Company and all Elfab’s rupture discs are manufactured in-house to the highest standards. To ensure the correct performance of a rupture disc, it must be used in its correct holder, as specified by the rupture disc manufacturer.

As the temperature seen by a rupture disc changes its burst pressure and performance will change. As a result of extensive testing, Elfab can advise on these changes, or on other technical matters, such as discharge requirements, material selection, corrosion resistance, customized designs and burst detection.
