Elfab Launches Rupture Disc Detection System For OEM Market
03 October 2008
Elfab, Europe's leading manufacturer of rupture discs, explosion vents and associated detection systems has further developed its product range to allow OEM customers to benefit from its fail-safe, ATEX-approved burst detection system, Flo-Tel.
Since the launch of Flo-Tel in 2003, Elfab has sold thousands of units of the integral detection system to a wide range of industries worldwide. OE Flo-Tel, the latest addition to the Flo-Tel range, allows customers in OEM markets to identify when a disc has functioned within one of their applications.
OE Flo-Tel offers all the benefits of Elfab's original magnetic burst detection system and is suitable for a number of the company's custom-engineered devices, including those that are electron beam welded by Elfab's unique in-house capability. Unlike traditional membrane-type detectors, OE Flo-Tel is fail-safe. The non-invasive detection system is installed on the vent side of rupture discs and only operates when a disc has functioned, thereby eliminating false alarms.
OE Flo-Tel will benefit a range of OEM customers with applications in the military, aerospace, defence and medical industries. Fitted to the wall of the component, OE Flo-Tel is available for discs with a nominal bore of between 25mm and 100mm.
