Explosion gas group IIB & IIC.
Elmac Technologies® AVC Series End-of-line
Deflagration Arresters are designed to be installed at
the end of a pipeline or exit vent from a vessel, where
the ignition source is external, to provide protection
against atmospheric deflagration.

Principle of operation Standards compliance


A flame arrester uses an element with small apertures which All Elmac End-of-line Deflagration Arresters have been tested
allows gas or vapour to pass. If the apertures are smaller than and certified in accordance with national and international
the maximum experimental safe gap (MESG) for the gas or standards. Actual device performance is verified in the Elmac
vapour then a flame cannot pass through the arrester and is Technologies state-of-the-art in-house test facility.
